During the official unveiling ceremony, Sunway leadership announced that Enfiniti’s Puteri Gunung Ledang The Musical 2026 will serve as the flagship resident production to inaugurate the magnificent complex this October.

“Great nations and vibrant cities are defined not only by their commercial accomplishments, but by their soul, heritage, and artistic vitality,” stated Sunway leadership during the press conference. “Bringing Puteri Gunung Ledang — the crown jewel of Malaysian musical theatre — as our inaugural production exemplifies our commitment to nurturing local arts and providing our artists with the world-class stage they deserve.”
