KUALA LUMPUR: The National Vaisakhi Fest 2025, a vibrant celebration of Sikh culture and Malaysia's multicultural harmony, will take place on Saturday (July 26) at the Malaysia Tourism Centre (Matic) in Jalan Ampang here. The admission-free festival, to be held 5pm to 10.30pm, invites both locals and tourists to immerse themselves in the rhythms, flavours and traditions of Sikh and Malaysian culture. Organised by the Kuala Lumpur Sikh Sports and Recreation Club (KLSSRC) with the support of the Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry, the festival is held in collaboration with the World Sikh Chamber of Commerce Malaysia (WSCCM) and the Kuala Lumpur & Putrajaya Indian Chambers of Commerce (KLPICC). Organising Committee chairman Datuk Baldev Singh Kailay said the event not only celebrates cultural harmony but also reflects the Sikh community's ongoing contributions to Malaysia's development. "We hope this event will not only strengthen cross-cultural ties but also serve as a platform to showcase Malaysia's diversity to the world," he said in a statement Friday. According to Baldev, efforts are being taken to list the National Vaisakhi Fest in Malaysia's official tourism calendar, an initiative that would not only promote the nation's cultural diversity but also boost the country's standing as a must-visit destination for global travellers. This year's National Vaisakhi Fest promises a feast for the senses, featuring multicultural stage performances, Punjabi folk dances, lively and colourful Bollywood performances and thrilling Gatka (Sikh Martial Arts) demonstrations.
