LEGOLAND Malaysia Welcomes the Year of the Horse


This Lunar New Year, LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort invites families to step into a world where tradition meets imagination, as it welcomes the Year of the Horse with a month-long, brick-built Lunar New Year Celebration, running from 22 January to 22 February 2026.

 


Inspired by the theme “Garden of Prosperity”, the Resort has been transformed into a vibrant festive playground filled with glowing red lanterns, blooming cherry blossoms and immersive LEGO® creations. At the heart of the celebration stands a striking 2.4-metre LEGO® Horse centrepiece – a powerful symbol of strength, renewal and good fortune. 

 


Inspired by the LEGO 40779 Year of the Horse Chinese Zodiac Limited Edition set, the majestic Horse carries an auspicious scroll of blessings for the year ahead, creating a must-see photo moment for families and LEGO fans alike. 

 


Build Your Luck, Brick by Brick

At the heart of the celebration is an interactive adventure that invites guests to build, play and prosper together. Families and young builders can pick up an activity card and trot around the park as they complete creative challenges to unlock the magic of the “Garden of Prosperity” – one brick at a time.


Hands-on festive activities include:

  • Build-A-Horse, where guests build their own symbol of energy, courage and good fortune
  • LEGO Orange Tree Making, stack prosperity and happiness onto every branch as you build and take home this special creation.



  • LEGO Chinese Calligraphy Mural, where culture meets creativity through brick-built artistry
  • Minifigure Trading, the classic LEGOLAND favourite loved by fans
  • LEGO Horse Post & Win, where snapping a photo with the centrepiece could rein in weekly prizes

 



Spring Festival Spectacular: Galloping into Lunar New Year Traditions

From 17 to 22 February 2026, the celebration reaches full stride with the Spring Festival Spectacular, a high-energy showcase of cultural performances that bring Lunar New Year traditions to life, LEGO style.




Guests can look forward to:

  • Lion Dance Blessings & Acrobatic High Pole Performances
  • Dragon Dance Performances
  • Stilts Walker Acrobatic Acts
  • Oriental Live Music Performances
  • Chinese Face-Changing Acts
  • Ancient Drum Shows

 



Adding to the festive rhythm, daily live shows throughout the celebration include Brick of Prosperity (Opening Show), Lunar Beats Spectacular, and Finale of Fortune (Farewell Show) – each packed with colour, music and interactive moments that celebrate unity, joy and new beginnings.

 

Fortune Fest: Prizes of Prosperity Await

Good fortune extends beyond the festivities! From 17 to 22 February 2026, Fortune Fest rewards guests who spend RM188 or more in a single receipt at participating retail or F&B outlets.

 

Lucky builders stand a chance to win LEGO sets worth up to RM800, with total prizes valued at RM10,000 – proof that prosperity really does come brick-built.

Big Bad Wolf Hot Box Book Sale Is Back in 2026



After a year-long hiatus and growing demand from readers nationwide, Big Bad Wolf Books is bringing back one of its most requested formats with the return of the Big Bad Wolf Hot Box Book Sale, running from 7 to 15 February 2026 at Hextar World, Empire City, Exhibition Hall (G Floor).

 


Open daily from 10:00am to 12:00am, the Hot Box Book Sale invites readers to experience book buying in its most immersive form — choosing a box and filling it with books they actually want to read, drawn from a collection of over 500,000 titles spanning children’s books, fiction, non-fiction and coffee table selections.

 


Unlike traditional book sales or pre-selected bundles, Hot Box places the power of choice firmly in readers’ hands. Shoppers browse freely, hunt for familiar authors and recognisable titles, and build their own personalised box, one book at a time. The experience has often been described as a treasure hunt, where discovery, strategy and volume determine the final value.

 


What sets Hot Box apart is its transparent approach to book conditions. Titles are offered in a broad and visible range of conditions, allowing readers to trade minor imperfections for significant savings. This model enables book lovers to pack far more books for less, turning volume into value.

 


“Hot Box is not about perfect copies,” the team shared. “It’s about great stories, meaningful reads, and the thrill of uncovering unexpected gems. The fuller the box, the better the deal — and readers who know how to maximise space walk away with more than they expected.”

 


Operating on a first-come, first-served basis, the Hot Box Book Sale rewards early visitors with the widest selection and the strongest chance to uncover the best finds. As with previous editions, early ‘Wolfies’ are expected to secure the fullest boxes as demand peaks during opening days.

 


Taking place at Hextar World, Empire City, the large-scale exhibition hall is designed to support long browsing sessions, discovery-driven shopping, and the physical thrill of box-packing — an experience that has become synonymous with the Hot Box concept.

 


With interest already running high ahead of its return, Hot Box 2026 reinforces Big Bad Wolf Books’ ongoing commitment to accessible reading, proving that affordability does not have to come at the cost of quality, choice or experience.

Guardians of Legacy | Kwai Chai Hong’s Chinese New Year 2026 Celebration of Care, Protection and Generations



Chinese New Year has long been a season of togetherness, blessings, and traditions passed unostentatiously from one generation to the next. In celebration of this enduring spirit, Kwai Chai Hong presents its 2026 Chinese New Year art installation, Guardians of Legacy(十二福星), a cultural showcase inspired by the traditional Cloth Tiger (布老虎).



A beloved form of folk art, the Cloth Tiger (布老虎) was traditionally handmade by parents or grandparents as an expression of love. They are gifted to children as a symbol of protection, carrying wishes for safety, courage, wisdom, and good health. Drawing from this deeply rooted tradition, Guardians of Legacy(十二福星) introduces twelve Zodiac Guardians, each representing a unique blessing (祝福) that reflects enduring values of care, resilience, harmony, joy, and prosperity.

 

 

“In many Chinese families, expression of love between parents and children is rarely spoken aloud, instead it is deeply felt through actions and sacrifices,” said Zeen Chang, Co-Founder of Kwai Chai Hong. 


 

“As we grow older, we begin to understand this quiet form of love, instilling in us a strong sense of duty and sacrifice to honour our parents or elders, a value of demonstration known as filial piety. Guardians of Legacy emphasises this traditional virtue of showing the same protection, care, and appreciation towards them in return.”

 


“As we celebrate the appreciation of protection and care for our loved ones, the collaboration with guardian Malaysia added a meaningful layer to this year’s installation,” said Zeen. 



“Long recognised as a trusted advisor for wellness in Malaysian households, guardian reflects a modern expression of the same intention behind the Cloth Tiger — to safeguard loved ones through unostentatious and consistent care.”



“As a home-grown pharmacy, health and beauty retail chain established in Malaysia nearly six decades ago, Guardian has been a pioneer in serving the evolving health and well-being needs of our communities,” said Priscilla Wu, Managing Director of guardian Malaysia. “We believe wellness is shaped by everyday care - through small, thoughtful acts, genuine understanding, and being present at every stage of life.




For generations, guardian has been a trusted wellness advisor for Malaysians by offering reassurance, guidance, and care in both big and small moments. 



This collaboration reflects our enduring relationship and ongoing commitment to supporting the well-being of families across the nation. As we celebrate decades of care, we look forward to continuing this journey of wellness together.”




She added, “This Chinese New Year, we are honoured to collaborate with Kwai Chai Hong to celebrate our shared heritage, community, and care. It is a meaningful opportunity to give back, and to continue supporting initiatives that uplift the communities we are privileged to serve.”




Guardians of Legacy (十二福星)
Conceptualised by Kwai Chai Hong Co-Founder Javier Chor, Guardians of Legacy(十二福星) features twelve Zodiac Guardians presented as sculptural figures of varying forms, poses, and scales, with the lead Guardian standing over 7 feet tall. Each guardian embodies a distinct blessing (祝福), collectively forming a visual narrative of protection, care, and heritage within the historic laneway.



“What inspired me about the Cloth Tiger is that no two are ever made the same,” said Javier. “Each one carries different motifs and well wishes, shaped by a parent’s hopes for their child — for protection, peace, health, and fortune. That idea of personalised care stayed with me. Over time, Cloth Tigers evolved into cloth animals that represented each child, much like how our Zodiac becomes a lifelong guardian. 


Guardians of Legacy grew from that belief — that love and protection are expressed through thoughtful gestures, crafted uniquely for the one they are meant to watch over. This is what each of the twelve Zodiac Guardians at Kwai Chai Hong represents.”


The Guardians of Legacy (十二福星) installation will be open to the public from 30 January to 8 March, daily from 9am to 12am.



Blessings Parade (接福 · 传福)

As part of Guardians of Legacy (十二福星), the Blessings Parade brings the spirit of protection and care beyond the art installation and into the streets. Inspired by the tradition of the Cloth Tiger, the parade invites the community to receive blessings and pass them on from health and well-being to harmony, fortune, and joy; continuing the cycle of care across generations. The Blessings Parade(接福 · 传福) will take place on Saturdays, 31 January at 7PM and 7 February at 11AM, departing from the gates of Kwai Chai Hong.



Located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur’s historic Chinatown, Kwai Chai Hong is a cultural laneway dedicated to celebrating heritage, art, and community through contemporary storytelling. Come celebrate the Chinese New Year at Kwai Chai Hong with your loved ones and be sure to check out the 10 amazing eateries in the area!
