SELANGOR – Running from 18 January to 16 February 2025, perfectly timed with the school holidays, the campaign promises an auspicious yet unforgettable celebration across GL Play’s five iconic parks: SplashMania Waterpark, Discovery Park, Paya Indah Discovery Wetlands, Quayside and FunPark.
“Bloom Boom Pow”: Celebrate Growth, Fun, and Prosperity
The campaign captures the spirit of Chinese New Year with a tagline that highlights its core themes:
- Bloom: Represents the blossoming of flowers, symbolising growth, renewal, and prosperity in Chinese culture.
- Boom: Ride into the New Year through thrilling adventures and extraordinary fun in GL Play’s diverse parks.
- Pow: Kick off the festivities with a bang, just like the vibrant energy of firecrackers which wards off bad luck.
“We wanted to celebrate the Lunar New Year with all our visitors, bringing elements of prosperity to our attractions using oriental decor to channel in the festive occasion. This Chinese New Year, we will be bringing in more Heng Ong Huat performances as well, transforming our leisure hubs to joyful experiences for visitors of all ages to remember,” said Liong Ve Lyn, Senior General Manager of Leisure & Hospitality Gamuda Land.
Throughout the campaign, SplashMania Waterpark and FunPark will be adorned with blooming cherry blossoms and oriental-themed decorations. These vibrant setups will embody the prosperity and excitement of the season, creating a joyful and immersive atmosphere for visitors.
On top of that, Night Splash will be making a festive return every Friday and Saturday night from 17 January to 15 February at SplashMania Waterpark for some splashin’ good fun under the stars, including the first and second day of Chinese New Year.
