Save Your Seat: klpac's 20th Anniversary Fundraising

In 2025, klpac turns 20. 
 
We survived a global financial crisis AND a pandemic that left us 377 without audiences. We have clawed our way back to full houses knowing we would never make up the losses. We focused on pressing on even when funding dried up and sponsors left.
 
Budget 2025 has left non-profit arts centres like us in a sad state. We are waiting no more. Leading up to our 20th anniversary, klpac will be fundraising to secure our own future and we are inviting arts lovers who have been part of klpac’s story and space to chip in.
 
About Save Your Seat
#SaveYourSeat is an adopt-a-seat programme, part of klpac’s 20th anniversary fundraising.
 
We know how Malaysians love to ‘chope’ seats. You can now ‘chope’ or adopt your own seat in Pentas 1 and play a part in keeping this beautiful home for Malaysian performing arts alive. 
 
It can be done under your name or you can ‘chope’ on behalf of someone else to celebrate a milestone or anniversary, dedicate it to your loved one or furkid. You can even team up with your friends to adopt one. The funds will be channeled to klpac’s operations needs and you will be recognised on a board outside Pentas 1 through 2025. 
 
We first ran #SaveYourSeat in 2020 during the pandemic and will be forever grateful to our first batch of #SaveYourSeat adoptees from near and far.

Our Story
In 1995, two individuals created history by building the first privately owned and operated theatre in Malaysia below Dataran Merdeka. The individuals were Faridah Merican and Joe Hasham and the theatre was the The Actors Studio@Plaza Putra.

Then in 2003, flash floods inundated KL and destroyed The Actors Studio’s underground complex entirely. It was out of this tragedy that The Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre (klpac) was born.

The arts community needed a new home and history was made yet again. The Actors Studio, YTL Corporation and Yayasan Budi Penyayang joined hands to establish the country’s first fully-integrated arts centre. The Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre (klpac), a non-profit organisation, opened its doors in May 2005.

It has not only been a home to the arts community and a foster home for foreign troupes but it has become the very lifeline that keeps the arts and cultural life in Malaysia breathing.

An arts and cultural icon. Historical landmark. Award-winning architectural design.

There is nothing quite like klpac, really.
