MURFEST 2019 promises to be better than ever

Malaysia’s biggest wellness event, MURFEST (Malaysia Urban Retreat Festival) being in its 6^th year, is coming to the Palace of The Golden Horses Hotel, Mines Wellness City, Seri Kembangan, Selangor from Nov 8 to 10, 2019.

A special highlight of the 3-day festival will be the SME & Entrepreneurs Business Awards (SEBA) 2019, which recognized the best SME companies and individual entrepreneurs in Malaysia across a wide range of industries every year.

The announcements were made during the simultaneous official media launch of MURFEST 2019 with SEBA 2019 at the hotel on July 25.

Several MOUs were exchanged between various stakeholders during the launch.

Founded by Shobie Malani, MURFEST will open its Dreamland edition this year with a line-up of over 30 master presenters, more than 60 wellness-related workshops, a market place of healthy food and drinks, and more than 100 exhibitors offering wellness products and services, including a Neon GLO Ecstatic Dance Party.

Participants will get the opportunity to practice with the best yogis in the world, dance to fantastic music, play different instruments and sing with professional vocalist while still having time for a healthy meal and some dedicated time for therapeutic massages.

Strategic collaboration between MURFEST and GHHS Wellness will see more Urban Retreats and Corporate Wellness engagements in the months to come. 

GHHS Wellness is a world-class preventive healthcare centre in Malaysia, using western diagnostic technology and eastern traditional treatment. On top of that, there is myriad of health tourism and wellness programs designed for a holistic healthier lifestyle which will be developed further to explore the growing market share in the region.

Throughout the years, MURFEST has placed Malaysia into the global wellness map by promoting Malaysia as Asia’s No. 1 Health and Wellness destination. It supports the “Visit Malaysia 2020” initiative that has received the support and endorsement of the prime minister of Malaysia Tun Dr Mahathir bin Mohamad.

By the year 2020, Malaysia is expected to welcome some 36 million tourists and earn tourism receipts of RM168 billion. Wellness tourism is undoubtedly a key focus. Moreover, MURFEST is a pivotal platform to assist in fulfilling this promising fact.

So, whether you are a yogi, dancer, music-lover, healthy-eating enthusiast or simply on a path of self-discovery to try something new, fun and exciting, MURFEST is the perfect place to be this November.

Murfest is organised by Xhale Asia and SEBA is an accredited SME and entrepreneur award, which is organised by Yayasan Usahawan Malaysia.
