What’s to look forward to at The Exchange TRX this Raya?

Be greeted by decorative elements at the entrances and throughout the interior of The Exchange TRX. There’s a giant installation at TRX City Park inspired by a dish most synonymous with Hari Raya – the humble ketupat.

The ‘Magnificence of Raya’ will take over Central Exchange and will feature a grand kampung house – a stunning manifestation of traditional Malay architecture, design, and motifs. The star element for the campaign will be Malaysian batik, featuring designs which are heavily inspired by the natural beauty of Malaysia and intricately imbued with floral motifs, headlined by the nationally venerated Bunga Raya.

Central Exchange will also be the epicentre of cultural experiences for guests. Guests intending to take a break from their Raya preparations can enjoy traditional silat and wayang kulit performances, or musical acts from a caklempong and kompang troupe.

The decorations will also feature giant mechanical flowers that mimic the gentle sway of the wind – an ode to Malaysia’s natural landscape. Guests are invited to post a photo of themselves with their favourite Raya décor to win exciting prizes from The Exchange TRX.
