2 weeks ago Avenue K had their official opening and it's celebrated with glitz and glamour. If you are not familiar with the malls in Kuala Lumpur, Avenue K is located at No 156 Jalan Ampang, 50560 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia which is opposite the well-known Petronas Twin Towers.
They have a really spectacular opening lion dance show by Malaysia Kun Seng Keng Dragon and Lion Dance Association.
Kun Seng Keng (KSK) is a world class lion dancing association from Muar, Johor. ... 24 times of championship with track record of winning 6 championships!
Keeping in line with our tagline of ‘Make Friends, Create Trends’, we’ve engaged 14 ambassadors who represent a colourful and diverse group of people in the city to bring out our ‘Connecting KL’ campaign to life” declared Sue Wang, AK’s General Manager.
She added, “We want to share our joy of new beginnings with our customers so we have infused this energy and spirit into all our activities to start the launch of the mall positively,”
Avenue K Shopping Mall is officiated by Tourism and Cultural Minister, YB Dato’ Seri Mohamed Nazri bin Abdul Aziz as well as Federal Territories Minister, YB Datuk Seri Utama Tengku Adnan bin Tengku Mansor.
Also present in support of Avenue K were heroes of philanthropy, Teri Choong and Dato’ Ruby Khong. The former is known for her managing role in NGO, Generasi Gemilang and the latter is known for heading Kechara Soup Kitchen Society Malaysia based in the Chow Kit area which feeds and cares for the city’s homeless and urban poor. Both are among the AK ambassadors appointed in conjunction with AK’s grand opening campaign.
Teri Choong won RM 8000 and Dato Ruby Khong won RM 2000 for their charities respectively from Avenue K in a Treasure Hunt held earlier this month. The two were presented with mock cheques as part of the grand opening itinerary.

Thrill seekers can also now be entertained at Breakout on level 2 which caters to those seeking new adventures. Each room presents its own web of puzzles and tasks crafted to ensure an exciting movie-themed escape experience like no other.
Also I was glad to find out that during this holy month of Ramadhan and the celebration month of Hari Raya, AK tenants are getting together to donate a portion of their sales to the Kechara Soup Kitchen + an NGO in Malaysia that feeds and cares for those in need. Good job Avenue K, I will definitely hang out and spend more in your mall now!
