Panggung Anniversari, Taman Botani Perdana

Built in the Sixties, the amphitheatre was a popular venue for the public to enjoy free concerts and outdoor entertainment. After a period of inactivity, the decision was made to restore the amphitheatre to its former glory and install a roof over the seats on the slopes. The new Panggung Anniversary now features a roof canopy made out of PTFE membrane that is strategically stretched over a striking yellow steel frame. This results in a free-form organic covering that serves to provide shade and protection from the elements, while its aerodynamic design facilitates airflow for natural ventilation.The expansive white-coloured roof canopy gives the outdoor theatre a distinct and instantly-recognisable feature that makes a bold statement in the middle of Kuala Lumpur’s green lung. At night, the entire structure is illuminated, giving it a futuristic and other-worldly appearance.
