The activities were supposed to be organised from Sept 1 to Sept 3. However, the dance battle and the semi-finals and finals of the Battle of the Bands have been postponed to another date.

Organiser Kombinasi Loyal Alliance Sdn Bhd said the hadrah contest comprising 30 teams will take place at the JPCC Playground Phase 1 on Friday afternoon (Sept 8).

Also taking place on Friday afternoon (Sept 8) until Sunday evening (Sept 10) at the JPCC Playground Phase 1 are games like eating hanging fruits, soccer kick, magic show, wheel-of-fortune, basketball matches, elephant ball, bowling, futsal and street soccer, roller blade, ghost house, charity ride and tug-of-war.

Organised in conjunction with His Majesty's 60th birthday celebration, the objective is to promote a healthy and dynamic lifestyle.
