#SHOWBIZ: Konsert Legasi P. Ramlee postponed to July 2026
KUALA LUMPUR: The Konsert Legasi P. Ramlee event, a key event under the Projek Perdana P. Ramlee initiative, has been postponed until July next year. Organiser TanahAir Films announced in a statement yesterday that the event will be expanded from a single performance into a full-fledged national arts and culture festival. "The festival will debut in a new format that is more vibrant, inclusive and impactful, strengthened by the backing of strategic partners who see it as a national heritage platform with tremendous potential to unite the arts, culture and creative industries," the statement said. Executive director of TanahAir Films, Datuk Khairul Anwar Salleh, said: "We no longer view Konsert Legasi P. Ramlee as just a one-off show. This is the foundation of a sustainable national cultural brand. With the involvement of orchestras, Malaysia's top performers, and key players in the creative industry, this transformation will allow for greater public and corporate participation, expanding both reach and impact." He added that the shift to a festival format creates more meaningful engagement opportunities for brands and sponsors, including creative activations, social involvement, and broader national messaging across multiple platforms. The event's creative director, Adlin Aman Ramlie, said: "From the concert stage to the cultural arts arena, this festival allows us to revive the spirit and soul of Tan Sri P. Ramlee in multiple dimensions. I see this as a chance to broaden the very meaning of legacy itself." "P. Ramlee was not just an artiste; he embodied values, the spirit of an era, the voice of a nation, and the mind of a visionary unafraid to address issues, values, and emotions. This new approach will bring his legacy even closer to today's generation," he added. TanahAir Films extended its thanks to all partners, sponsors, and media who have supported the initiative. They described the postponement as "a bold step to ensure that the upcoming festival will truly stand as a national-scale arts and cultural event with lasting impact." "TanahAir Films apologises for any inconvenience caused and hopes that this unwavering support will continue to accompany them in realising a project that will be remembered for generations to come," the statement said. Ticket holders will be contacted by Ticket2U within three weeks with options to reschedule, upgrade or request a refund.

P. Ramlee's Spirit To Light Up KL In An Unforgettable Night Of Music And Nostalgia
Subscribe to our FREE Mark your calendars, Malaysia – something special is coming your way. This 20 September 2025, the Mega Star Arena in Kuala Lumpur will transform into a grand stage celebrating one of Malaysia's most beloved cultural icons, Tan Sri P. Ramlee, with the Konsert Legasi P. Ramlee – a tribute concert unlike any other. Announced at a press event held at Kompleks Studio Merdeka, FINAS, Ulu Kelang, the concert is a project by TanahAir Films Sdn. Bhd., a local production house co-founded by renowned media figure Datuk Khairul Anwar Salleh and multi-talented actor-director Adlin Aman Ramlie. This concert isn't just another musical night – it's part of a much bigger vision called Projek Perdana P. Ramlee , a multi-platform initiative to honour the genius of P. Ramlee and his peers, and bring their timeless art into the hearts of a new generation. So, who was P. Ramlee? If you're Malaysian, chances are you've heard his songs or watched his movies – or both. Born in 1929, Tan Sri P. Ramlee was more than a singer – he was a film director, actor, composer, and cultural icon whose legacy shaped Malaysia's entertainment industry. With classics like Bujang Lapok , Hang Tuah , and countless evergreen songs to his name, he's often remembered as a one-man powerhouse of creativity, heart, and humour. A star-studded lineup and a 60-piece orchestra Konsert Legasi P. Ramlee promises a grand performance that's both nostalgic and bold. Think cinematic lighting, theatrical storytelling, and a blend of old-meets-new musical arrangements — all under the baton of four Malaysian music legends: Dato' Ramli MS, Datuk Mokhzani Ismail, Helen Yap, and Michael Veerapen. Together, they'll lead a 60-piece orchestra through more than 30 of P. Ramlee's most treasured songs, some reimagined with contemporary flair, while others stay true to their original form. Taking the stage will be iconic voices like Dato' Jamal Abdillah, Datuk Zainalabidin, Ella, Liza Hanim, Mimi Fly, and Nadeera, each bringing their unique spin to P. Ramlee's timeless music. And for that touch of nostalgia? Tribute performers P. Radhi, Danie Hasbullah, and Musly Ramlee – known for channeling P. Ramlee's signature charm and voice – will make special appearances. More Than a Concert — It's a Cultural Revival 'This concert is more than just entertainment. It is a bridge between generations, a revival of timeless artistic values, and a heartfelt tribute to one of the greatest cultural figures in our nation's history,' Khairul said. Concert director Adlin echoed the sentiment, describing the show as 'a bold reinvention' of the golden era of Malay music. 'It will revive the spirit of P. Ramlee not only in melody, but through every scene, every moment, and every emotional beat,' he shared. The concert marks the second chapter of the Projek Perdana P. Ramlee journey, following the launch of the Legasi Podcast in 2024. According to the organisers, more creative projects under this initiative are still to come.
