The first tour on Aug 22 will start at SOGO Kuala Lumpur, proceed to the Petronas Twin Towers and end at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, while the second on Sept 12 will begin at Dataran Merdeka, continue to Sungei Wang Plaza and finish at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur. Both tours will feature live performances by cultural artists and Pentagrama musicians.

As part of JAPEN’s 1 Rumah 1 Jalur Gemilang initiative, Jalur Gemilang flags will be distributed to attendees to encourage households to display the national flag. The programme, introduced in 2024, has become a recurring element of the National Day and Malaysia Day celebrations, JAPEN director-general Erwin Khairul Ahmad said.
