BIG BAD WOLF BOOKS OPENS ITS DOORS TO THE WOLF DEN SALE 2026


For years, Malaysians have flocked to Big Bad Wolf Books sales in search of their next favourite reads. But there is one place that has always remained out of reach – the Wolf Den.



For the first time ever, Big Bad Wolf Books is opening the doors of its very own Wolf Den at Wolf House, Shah Alam, inviting the public to experience THE WOLF DEN SALE 2026 from 7 to 9 November 2026, between 9am and 9pm daily.





This is no ordinary book sale. It is an opportunity to step inside the place where over 10 million books live, offering visitors a rare first-hand look at the home of Big Bad Wolf Books. While the brand has brought millions of books to communities across Malaysia and around the world, the public has never been given access to this space until this special three-day event.




With its doors now open, visitors can explore rows upon rows of bookshelves stretching from floor to ceiling, all under one roof. 




Whether it is children's books, fiction or non-fiction, there is something for readers of all ages and interests to discover.


A LOOK INSIDE THE WOLF DEN

Beyond the books, THE WOLF DEN SALE 2026 is designed as a relaxed day out for families, friends and fellow book lovers.


Visitors are welcome to take their time browsing the books, enjoy music playing throughout the space, grab a drink and simply soak in the atmosphere.



With free entry and books available at five price points; RM1, RM5, RM8, RM10 and RM15, visitors can explore the Wolf Den at their own pace and take home new books along the way.

A LEGACY OF LIGHT AND LOVE


Traditions may be passed down through generations, but it is the moments shared together that keep them alive. This Deepavali, the Curve celebrates the stories, traditions and connections that make the Festival of Lights so meaningful with its 2026 Deepavali campaign, “The Golden Legacy.” From a radiant festive installation to interactive family activities and community initiatives, the campaign invites visitors to honour cherished traditions, create new memories and keep the spirit of Deepavali alive for generations to come.



From now till 15 November 2026, the Curve will be transformed into a celebration of Indian heritage, with a grand golden diya taking centre stage, symbolising the light, blessings and traditions passed down from one generation to the next. The festive installation features a magnificent elephant centrepiece, symbolising wisdom, strength, prosperity and good fortune. Complemented by a beautiful kolam display, vibrant hanging garlands and traditional Indian Deepavali lanterns, the decorations bring together rich cultural elements to create a warm, colourful and inviting festive atmosphere. Visitors can also capture memorable moments at thoughtfully curated photo corners, including a traditional chair adorned with festive decorations and a heritage-inspired lounge featuring rugs, lanterns and carved artefacts, offering families a welcoming space to gather, celebrate and embrace the joy of Deepavali.

 

“Deepavali is a time to come together, celebrate our cultural heritage and share in the joy of the festive season. Through The Golden Legacy, we hope to bring these traditions closer to our community by creating opportunities for families to connect, learn and celebrate together. We believe that when traditions are shared and experienced together, they become meaningful memories that continue to inspire future generations,” said Ms Elaine Liew, General Manager of the Curve.


 

Beyond the festive installation, the Curve brings the meaning of “The Golden Legacy” to life through activations such as the “Light the Legacy”, an interactive game that offers a playful way to become part of this tradition. Families can play the game online and create their own colourful kolam designs.

 

The celebration continues with a vibrant Deepavali bazaar featuring traditional Indian treats, alongside cultural performances, including traditional Indian dances, and family-friendly activities such as festive crafts, kolam and rangoli workshops, and diya lighting. Together, these experiences bring the richness and vibrancy of Indian heritage to life, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the sights, flavours and traditions of Deepavali while creating meaningful family memories that last beyond the festive season.

 

 

The spirit of “The Golden Legacy” extends beyond the mall, with the Curve bringing the message of care and togetherness to the wider community through a Deepavali corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative in partnership with SKJT Ladang Edinburgh. A total of 50 underprivileged students and their parents will receive Deepavali Care Packs containing essential household and festive items to help them prepare for the celebrations and share in the joy of the festive season.


 

Celebrate Deepavali with festive rewards

 

Adding to the festive experience, from now to 15 November 2026 shoppers can enjoy special Gift-with-Purchase (GWP) rewards at the Curve:

·       Spend RM100 to redeem an exclusive set of Deepavali packets.

·       Spend RM300 to redeem an RM10 Curve voucher and a set of Deepavali packets.

·       Spend RM500 to redeem a Dessini electric pot and a set of Deepavali packets.

 


This Deepavali, the Curve invites families to celebrate the traditions that bring them closer, share in the joy of giving and create memories that will be treasured for years to come. Because while the Festival of Lights illuminates our surroundings, it is the love, traditions and moments we share that keep its Golden Legacy shining across generations.

Good Vibes Better Health


A catch-up with your bestie could become a check-in with yourself. It’s okay to not be okay, you don’t need a K-drama-sized plot twist to deserve a little care. On Sunday, 18th October 2026, Pasar Besties 2.0 invites visitors to The School, Jaya One, Petaling Jaya, from 10am to 7pm, for a community market that makes room for good food, creative experiences and conversations about mental wellbeing.



With its Camp Besties theme, the returning event (Year 2) combines local shopping, wellness sessions and hands-on workshops with Camp TheraFriends, an approachable introduction to mental health awareness. The aim is to help visitors better understand their emotions, recognise personal stress triggers and explore practical self-care approaches they can continue at home.



Come for the matcha. Make time for yourself.
 
Visitors do not need to be experiencing a mental health concern to take part. Whether coming with friends, spending time with family or exploring alone, the day offers opportunities to try something new, connect with others and give personal wellbeing a place in everyday plans.



Why an everyday check in matters
 
Malaysia’s national health data shows a growing need for mental health awareness. The Ministry of Health’s National Health and Morbidity Survey (NHMS) 2023 reported that depression prevalence among people aged 16 and above increased from 2.3% in 2019 to 4.6% in 2023, representing approximately one million people. These figures reflect survey screening findings rather than individual clinical diagnoses.



Research also highlights how everyday circumstances can affect wellbeing. Living on the Edge, a UNICEF and UNFPA-funded study based on a late-2023 survey of 755 low-income households across 16 public housing locations in Kuala Lumpur, found that three in four surveyed households said rising living costs adversely affected their mental wellbeing. While specific to the households surveyed, the finding illustrates the emotional weight that financial pressures can carry.



Alongside these pressures, connection matters. The World Health Organization’s 2025 Commission on Social Connection report estimates that one in six people worldwide experiences loneliness. WHO identifies social connection as an important contributor to mental and physical health.



Together, these findings strengthen the case for making awareness and support easier to approach. Community events can create opportunities to meet, share experiences and start conversations, while helping people discover where to turn when they need further guidance.
 
Building on friendship and community



Pasar Besties’ May 2024 edition, organised by The Butterfly Project at The School, Jaya One, introduced a market built around friendship, mental health awareness and support for local businesses. Its programme brought together participating brands, complimentary workshops and handmade and pre-loved offerings.



Pasar Besties 2.0 builds on that foundation with a more focused introduction to mental wellbeing through Camp TheraFriends, alongside a wider programme of creative and wellness experiences.



“We want people to know that they can care for their mental wellbeing before things feel overwhelming,” said Tammy Lim, organiser of Pasar Besties and founder of The Butterfly Project. “Camp Besties brings that conversation into a setting where people can spend time with friends, discover local businesses and try something new. Our hope is that visitors leave with a better understanding of what affects them, a practical self-care idea to explore at home and the confidence to seek support when they need it.”



 
A little curiosity can be a useful first step

At Camp TheraFriends, visitors can explore a free mental health check-in and six activity stations: HuggyPal Free Hugs, a personality test, sensory slime by Reveri.my, a DIY Emotional Support Pet, visual card reading, and a Give & Take a Message board.



The camp is intended to encourage awareness, reflection and conversation. Its recreational activities are not diagnostic assessments or substitutes for professional mental health care. The organisers’ aim is to make an initial conversation feel less daunting and help participants explore what supports their everyday wellbeing.



The first 200 pre-registered participants will receive a Camp Besties Activity Card with Salonpas and Big Plus samples. Participants who complete the card can redeem a lucky gift, according to the event programme.



Beyond the camp, visitors can discover movement, creative workshops and journalling activities. Programme highlights include Pound with Mis Claire, an Oyster Bois oyster-shucking workshop, a Kerlip workshop, Clean with Curaprox, Therapeaucake’s Cake Canvas, and Taman Hati’s DIY mini terrarium.
 


Other featured activities include lantern decorating with Let’s Be Whimsy, Pastel Nagomi art with Aarthi, a leather journal cover DIY with Kelang Leather, and a press-on nail workshop with Blushing Nails. Kozie Krafts’ Journal Jam collaborations feature The Tea Depot, Personal Pieces and Partner with Trees, while movement and relaxation experiences include sessions with Move with Samantha, TANA, and Ology3. The event programme also features free self-sampling HPV DNA Test for eligible participants by Program ROSE, supported by Etiqa Cares.



*Wellness sessions and workshops require advance registration, with no walk-ins for these activities. Visitors should check @pasarbesties on Instagram for sign-up details and programme updates.



The intention is for the experience to extend beyond the day itself. WHO’s evidence-informed guide, Doing What Matters in Times of Stress, explains that practical stress-management techniques can be practised for a few minutes each day. Camp Besties similarly encourages visitors to make space for everyday self-care and recognise when further support would be helpful.



Local businesses and partners coming together
 
The event’s VIP partners and participating NGO are Cameron Fresh; Kedai Mom; Kelapa Flow; Kerlip; Kozie Krafts; KSL Esplanade Hotel and San Onsen; Mis Claire; Oyster Bois; ROSE Foundation (Program ROSE); Reveri; Salonpas; Sleepyhead; Softsrve; Strntum; Taman Hati; Tastebudds; TheraFriends Psychology; Vochelle; Warmies; and Woots Skin.



The vendor line-up comprises 5am Oatclub; Absolute Yana; Aimer Online; Bloop Soda; Blushing Nails; Ce Chad; Curaprox; Donut Susu; Dorsata Honey; Ecominim; Lumi Bumi; Papa Guava; Partner with Trees; Pastries & Co; Pick A Pickle; The Beauty FX; The Daily Broth; The Gooey Cookies; The Tea Depot/Sen & Ro; Therapeaucake; Uncle Jeff; WPS; XALT; and You Gut This.
 
Together, the line-up gives visitors opportunities to discover local businesses, enjoy food and drinks, explore lifestyle and wellness offerings, and connect through shared activities.

 
One day only to come together! Bring your bestie, come with family or make it a day for yourself. Pasar Besties 2.0: Camp Besties takes place on Sunday, 18 October 2026, from 10am to 7pm at The School, Jaya One, Petaling Jaya. Browse the market, sign up for a new experience and take a moment to check in with yourself. For programme updates and registration information, visit www.instagram.com/pasarbesties/.  You make plans to see your besties. Make room to check in with yourself, too.
