Full details: A Fantasy World II: Anime x Classical event guide
The klpac String Orchestra returns to Pentas 2 with a second round of anime favourites and classical staples across three shows this weekend. Performances run Friday and Saturday at 8.30pm and Sunday at 3pm at the Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre in Sentul Park. The programme stitches together Radwimps tracks from Your Name, Weathering with You and Suzume with Joe Hisaishi’s Ghibli scores and pieces by Tchaikovsky, Beethoven and Debussy. Each show clocks in around 90 minutes with free seating. Doors open to ages five and up. The Friday and Saturday sessions were marked as going fast on 13 October.
What to expect
The klpac String Orchestra takes the stage for every performance. The set list moves from Radwimps songs tied to Makoto Shinkai’s films into Hisaishi’s Studio Ghibli arrangements before pivoting to Tchaikovsky, Beethoven and Debussy. No guest soloists or additional ensembles are listed. The venue uses free seating inside Pentas 2, so arrival time decides where you sit. The Friday and Saturday shows were listed as going fast on 13 October.
Tickets and how to attend
Tickets sell only through CloudJoi, the official partner, priced at RM68 to RM100 before fees. Buy directly from the official seller; resale or unofficial tickets may be refused at the door. The event is ticketed and suited for ages five and up. Each performance runs about 90 minutes with free seating.
Getting there
From central Kuala Lumpur, a Grab ride to klpac inside Sentul Park takes about 15 to 20 minutes, longer at rush hour. Ask the driver for drop-off at klpac, Sentul Park. The centre sits in a quiet green enclave north of the city centre. After an evening show, book the return ride as the audience leaves; cars come quickly from central KL.
Where to stay

Its studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom suites are larger than a standard hotel room, with comfortable beds, a full kitchenette and a bathtub, and there is a rooftop pool and Parry Road Cafe downstairs for breakfast before the event.
