Motorists heading into Bukit Bintang and the areas surrounding it over the next week should be prepared for traffic diversions, as roads are set to be closed in stages from today until May 2 in conjunction with the World Labour Day Celebration and Rain Rave Water Music Festival 2026. The three-day event, which runs from April 30 to May 2, is part of the activity list for Visit Malaysia 2026, and is expected to draw large crowds into the city centre. To facilitate the event’s setup and logistics, traffic management measures will be implemented in phases, with partial road closures at night from today, April 22 until April 28. On weekdays, there will be partial lane closures on Jalan Bukit Bintang from 11pm to 5am, and from 12am to 7am on weekends (April 25-26). From April 29 to May 2, Jalan Bukit Bintang will be fully closed throughout the day, and traffic heading into the area will be diverted to Jalan Sultan Ismail, Jalan Raja Chulan and Jalan Imbi. Authorities have asked the public to plan ahead and use public transport where possible. Rail services (MRT, LRT and Monorail) are set to operate at increased capacity throughout the festival period.
