Mega stars coming to Malaysia in 2025
In the year 2025, Puspal or the Central Agency for Application for Filming and Performance by Foreign Artistes have confirmed that Malaysians will see more international stars as over 40 concerts have been confirmed so far.
They include rock bands Linkin Park, Green Day and Hoobastank, pop-rock group Maroon 5 and South Korean girl group 2NE1 and these concerts are estimated to generate over RM200 million in revenue for organisers.
But the good news is that the list of concerts for 2025 is set to grow as the year progresses and the projected revenue is expected to increase including expenditure by fans on accommodation, food and transport.
Puspal revealed that there is an upward trend and Malaysia has become an appealing destination for world class live entertainment with 294 shows in 2023 and so far up to November this year the figure is 332 shows.
In addition, Malaysian fans can look forward as the year kicks off with South Korean duo Super Junior-D&E, the Taiwanese balladeer Wakin Chau performing in Genting Highlands and Chinese pop sensation Jason Zhang in Kuala Lumpur.
Some others coming to perform in Malaysia include Irish rock band, The Script, Hong Kong’s vocal powerhouse G.E.M (Gloria Tang) at Bukit Jalil Stadium and the live event of a popular South Korean variety show ‘Running Man.’
