Malaysia 2021
Thinking of visiting Malaysia or trying something new over the summer? Join us at Colours of Malaysia (CoM2021) for a two day family-friendly festival at the heart of the City of Melbourne. From sarapan (“breakfast” in Malay) to cultural performances, the festival will bring you a truly Malaysian experience. Let’s not forget Malaysia’s most iconic fruit – the king of fruits, durian! So what are you waiting for? Register your interest now!
We welcome everyone to come with empty hands and stomachs and leave with the smell and taste of Malaysia in your hearts.
What better way for Malaysians to contribute to our home away from home, than introducing our country of origin to the heart of Melbourne.
In collaboration with the City of Melbourne and the Consulate General of Malaysia in Melbourne, Colours of Malaysia 2021 (CoM 2021) aims to increase awareness, foster appreciation, and generate excitement about Malaysia in the form of a festival where history, people, language, and culture are presented to both Australian and international communities.
As part of the corporate social responsibility, CoM 2021 will also introduce established Malaysian businesses to the local Victorian community by showcasing, promoting, and networking with the local community.
Queen Victoria Market is one of the major landmarks in the central business district of Melbourne. Covering over seven hectares, it is the largest open-air market in the Southern Hemisphere. We are located at Shed K – you can come in from Peel Street or click the icons below to plan your trip!

Colours of Malaysia would also like to take this opportunity to thank our sponsor! Without helping hands, Colours of Malaysia wouldn’t have been painted so beautifully.
Thinking of moving away from the city but not sure where to begin? Underbank Bacchus Marsh is here to assist everyone with a range of existing natural assets that can be reinvigorated and incorporated into the new masterplan environment, enhancing the natural setting for residents, unlike many other developments.
