1. Explore KL’s First-Ever MONOPOLY Edition
This year marks the debut of MONOPOLY: Kuala Lumpur Edition, launched just in time for Visit Malaysia 2026 and featuring beloved landmarks like the PETRONAS Twin Towers, Dataran Merdeka, Bukit Bintang, and even KLIA. Adding to the excitement, Malaysia Airports has also introduced an exclusive travel-sized edition, available only at KLIA Terminal 1 and 2, which travellers can bring home instantly by spending RM800 in up to two receipts at participating outlets, a festive little reward to make holiday shopping even more fun. Whether you’re a collector or just curious, you have to pop by and experience it!
2. Join Free Festive Workshops Every Weekend
KLIA transforms into a Christmas craft hub every weekend from 12:30pm to 2:00pm, offering activities that add a cosy, handmade touch to your holiday season. Visitors can design their own Christmas wreaths, craft adorable sock snowmen, or try their hand at creating their very own snowglobes, perfect as keepsakes or gifts. The terminal also comes alive with live Christmas carols and Santa’s magical show, making the airport feel like a festive destination on its own.
3. Discover Niche Perfumes Perfect for Gifting
Our duty free stores are a treasure trove for fragrance lovers. This season, you’ll find Penhaligon’s, Xerjoff, Rituals, Cle de Peau, La Collection Privée Christian Dior and Maison 21, niche perfume houses known for their craftsmanship, storytelling, and unique scent profiles. Whether you’re looking for something bold, elegant, or unexpected, these fragrances make thoughtful gifts that feel special and personal. It’s one of the easiest ways to pick up a distinctive present before flying out.
4. Elevate Your Holiday Look with Lifestyle Accessories
