KUCHING, Sept 10: La Promenade Mall is gearing up for its much-anticipated Oktoberfest celebration, running from September 12 to October 6. This year’s festival promises to be the biggest yet, thanks to an exciting collaboration with What About Kuching (WAK). The event will showcase an expanded layout, additional seating, and a diverse array of food and beverages, ensuring an unforgettable experience for all attendees.

A Festival of Fun: What’s New This Year?

Expanded Space and Enhanced Entertainment

This year’s Oktoberfest at La Promenade Mall is set to be 50 per cent larger than previous years. The festival will take place every Thursday to Sunday, featuring live music performances each night. The mall’s layout has been improved to accommodate the larger crowd, with more seating and an extended space for food and drink vendors.

In a new twist, the festivities will continue into the night with after-parties hosted in collaboration with top drink vendors. This extension of the celebration promises to keep the party going well past the main events, providing more opportunities for fun and socializing.

Returning Favorites and New Experiences

The festival will feature performances by some of the most beloved bands from past years, including Mozaik, On Strings, and Time Signature. Dell Lawrence, the lead vocalist of Mozaik, expressed his excitement about returning for a third year. “This will be our third year performing here at La Promenade’s Oktoberfest, and it’s always a highlight for us. The crowds there are just wonderful,” Lawrence said. His bandmate, Alex Ang, added, “The atmosphere, the setup—everything comes together to create an unforgettable experience.”

Stephen Sunny, the event coordinator at La Promenade, highlighted the festival’s commitment to exceptional audio quality. “Every band has unique needs, and we tailor our setup accordingly,” he explained. “That’s why we work with skilled audio engineer, Emily Voong, who finetunes the sound quality each night. We take pride in delivering an exceptional auditory experience.”

What to Look Forward to: Food, Drinks, and More

Culinary Delights and Unique Cocktails

This year’s Oktoberfest will feature over two dozen food vendors, offering a wide variety of delicious options. A highlight of the food lineup is La Promenade’s newest tenant, Iced Bar, which will be serving unique cocktails, including a series of specially infused gin and tonics.

Exciting Exhibits and Exclusive Previews

In addition to the culinary treats, attendees will enjoy car exhibits from Subaru, Proton, and other brands. HSL’s property team will also showcase promotional materials, offering a sneak peek at “Jigsaw,” HSL’s first condo project. Visitors can join guided tours of the exclusive 200-acre La Promenade gated residences, and HSL will unveil new phases of the highly anticipated Vista Industrial Park.

Ensuring a Safe and Enjoyable Experience

HSL’s commitment to creating family-friendly and secure events is evident in their approach to Oktoberfest. Charles Lee, HSL’s security manager, recalled the excitement of previous years: “I vividly recall our small team working quickly to get tables and chairs as guests continued to pour in. Despite the stress, it was an exhilarating experience. Last year’s event was even bigger, and this year, we’re taking it to the next level.”

Lee emphasized the importance of safety at the festival, stating, “While ‘fun’ is our theme for Oktoberfest, we also prioritize safety, with increased security and an enhanced cleaning team.”
