The Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre (KLPAC)

A retro-style art performance venue that often hosts music shows. The space isn’t very big, but the sound system and equipment are quite good. While waiting, you can head outside to take photos — the environment is nice. Parking is easy too, and after the show you can drop by the café downstairs to grab a bite.

In love with this venue, week often come here few times a year for either concerts, musical, or shows. The surrounding old buildings added a melancholy yet beautiful vibe to it. In the evening there are always joggers and park goers who come in and enjoy the serenity of the lake and grass land, making this place more vibrant and lively.

I had such an amazing time taking the kids to the Nutcracker. The cafe had some tasty food and great coffee. The staff was nice. The seats were comfortable. I had to take a one star off for the bathroom. It was quite disgusting. Perhaps because it was a Sunday matinee and so many people the had a hard time keeping it clean. I went to the bathroom twice and it was just icky, wet floors, no toilet paper. I was pretty shocked in comparison to the rest of the facility. I would still go to this center for sure. Just hoping that was a one time situation for the bathrooms.

Came for the youth wind band for sky cinema 15. Excellently performance of orchestra with bonus track at the end. Very cute japanese music conductor. Every instrument player are enjoying not only just the crowd. After performance downstair have a nice smoke chicken and cafe to hangout. Scenery of surrounding is absolute beauty and well maintain.

It can be a bit hard to get to just for a mere visit, so I highly recommend those on holiday in KL to plan your programmes and get tickets prior to coming over — because it is a cosy venue. But I really enjoy the buzz this place gives!

What a nice place to chill and enjoy... Great to connect with our mother earth and Father sky...

If you’re unsure of what to do in your free time and are bored of just going to malls in KL, why not support our local performing arts scene by watching some local plays instead? It’s an amazing experience and I highly recommend checking it out at KLPAC - the venue itself is beautiful (there is also a scenic park) and plenty of parking available. I watched anak-anak Malik and really enjoyed it. All the actors were so amazing and I was so immersed that I didn’t even feel the time go by. The theatre itself is also comfortable , well maintained and had good acoustics. Will definitely be back!

Lovely refurbished grounds. The nostalgia of bygone times is so prevalent. Railway houses and buildings that speak of colonial times. What an amazing job YTL did on Sentul. From dreary and dull to vibrant and alive.

Within about a month, I had visited to this place twice. The first time, i was given a free ticket to watch the musical performance of a new debut singer/pianist. The second time, I was there to support a friend of mine to watch a Buddhist Musical Stage Performance. She was one of the cast that performed in the show ( a great show by the way). Putting aside the show and comment about the place, I actually quite like it. It is actually a big place and came with quite a number of parkings that you do not need to worry about the parking spaces. The design of the building is also very artistic. I heard that a lot of couples paying to come here just for their pre-wedding photo shooting. Apart from that, the hall is actually equipped with very good sound system as well. One little thing that i will comment is actually the space between the seats are a little too small that I felt uncomfortable. Other than that, I think this is a good place and I do hope that the owner could actually develop a little more of this center as there are actually a few abandoned/running down buildings which could be turned into some cafe or others.

They call this gem the Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre also known as KL Pac which is tucked pretty close to the main city spots like KLCC, Publika and even Bukit Bintang. Not only this place serves a purpose for you to 'escape' from the City into its lush green fields and sit by the lake to watch the sunset but it is also known for hosting major events like Music & Drama Theares, Lectures, Dance, Film Screening, Workshops and many many more to tease the art lovers. You can end your evening by enjoying meals and drinks by the lake with a buddy and sink into nature's paradise all at once. Along the lake, they have provided a little area with a rooftop for you to sit in and still enjoy the atmosphere even when it is raning cats and dogs!

I knew this place via event. So I drive all the way here using waze. Before you going in by car, you will come across a security station... pass by a very unique building but no longer use... The environment was so nice that. This place is just like a hidden GEM in Sentul. Times on, KLPAC will have different performance of arts. You may enjoy the arts.

This place used to be my second home. I practically came here everyday to practice and to prepare for my performance. I love their designs, the open concept, the park, the pond, the people, the activities available, the performances..... SO MUCH. It felt like a dream to be able to perform here. The lightings for their stages are amazing. They will make every possible picture look amazing. The audio is also of the best, no cut offs, no interruptions, not even a fuzzy sound heard from them. The investment is worth while. They do upgrade their stuff :) The founders, Farah Merican and Joe Hasham are two amazing folks that created this place. They are really friendly in person and it's so nice talking to them. I love how they see art as part of their life and still have this burning passion up till today. Their park is a very beautiful place. If you want to have a photoshoot there you have to rent the venue (the last time I went there with just my phone camera I was chased off by the guards LOL). So this will be the tip for you guys. If you are not into performing arts, ah sorry, you came to the wrong page... nah just kidding. They have restaurants that we claim are hidden gems right next to the venue. Check them out though! :)

I remember my first time here. It was with a girl,*blush*. We went to support a friend that took part in Romeo and Juliet. I went to get the tickets a week earlier to surprise her. If you're taking the bus, simply let the bus driver know that you're heading towards KL Pac. He should drop you right across the entrance, and proceed to cross the road, cautiously. It is quite a walk, a good 10 minutes from the entrance to the building itself. But once inside, you will be greeted with the sight of amazing architectures and design. Tickets can be bought at the ticketing booth right at the entrance. They have a variety of shows, from sketches to free screening of international films. The sketch Romeo and Juliet which I caught was incredible! The cast were talented and I really loved the seating arrangement, everyone had a clear and direct view. Be sure to look for student discounts!

Being exposed to musical and theatre abroad and I was pleasantly surprised that we have one here in the heart of Kuala Lumpur!!!! I was here to watch a play called Butterfly Lovers - sponsored by SP Setia Group. It was fantastic!!! The theatre hall itself was pleasant and the seats were comfortable. I'm not too sure how many people they can accommodate, but well I couldn't be bothered as long as I have seat :) The cast was fantastic! What was unique about this place, they have SUBTITLES!!!! Hooray!! If the play is in a different language, you can just enjoy it by reading the subtitles. Prices for a play wasn't cheap cheap per say, but it is reasonable and if you think it's time for couples to go for a break from cinemas, this should be the next best thing to do. Finger foods are served before the play and yes, it is FREE flow! You need to remember to dress pleasant - very English by the way, and remember try not to be too casual walking in with flip flops.

I can't remember my first show at KLPAC but I remember how I was impressed by the interior and exterior of this place. With a lushes of greenery outside and ruins of an old building, koi ponds, and open space interior with a restaurant inside, KLPAC does not only produce musical, theater, dance and singing performances but also serve as a training grounds for those who are into the performing arts. Led by Dato Faridah Merican, her passion for the performing arts is ever on fire. Many good shows have been performed at KLPAC and many more to come. I am a fan of the performing arts but it has been a while since I been, being the ticket prices can be rather pricey and at the same time, not all that are showing interests me. However, KLPAC is the place for all performing arts and if you have not been here yet, give it a try at least once, and I bet you will be amazed as I was when I first came to for a show.

My first ever performing arts place i have ever been too to cover an event which is Indicine Live to interview the cast, at first i came here not knowing the place and damn this place is so beautiful. I met the cast downstairs in the small cafe and they were all about to prepare for the sketch of the night, why is called Indicine? I thought it was a word they actually made it out but it stads for - IN THE SCENE, it is the name of one of the hall , so you are entering a hall that is going to go live. You get it? These short sketches are really funny and creative, they will talk about current issues, sing, act and spotlight everywhere. Tickets are sold out pretty fast because the hall is quite small. One sketch after another, the cast will go in and out with a different costume and storyline. So worth the watch is short understandable sketches. Kl Pac is a performing arts centre where not only dancers, actors performed in here but they do have dance classes and acting classes.
