2020 marks the imminence of Unconventionalism.
Of course, tradition will always have an evergreen flair – a certain immortality, if you will. However, it is a decade of a divergence from the norm and the celebration of individuality that now embodies the New Age. And thus, we at Sevenpie commemorate this bifurcation from the conventional with a list of ways you can celebrate the new year with your family other than the conventional reunion dinner.
1. An escape room
Escape rooms are a fun experience in their own right. However, factor in the company of your family and you’re in for a whole other treat.
Try Breakout Malaysia, the latest entertainment trend offering reality escape gaming. Consisting of a wide variety of differently themed rooms, including a surreal horror offset of the game, this is a fun way to make CNY 2020 a memorable one.
2. Picnicking
Indoor eating is overrated. Why not bring your dinner, outdoors? Fill a bag with your favourite festive foods and bring Man, to Nature.
You should consider landscapes like Perdana Botanical Garden and the ASEAN Sculpture Garden for your picnicking entourage!
3. Pottery
Bond with your relatives whilst shaping clay. Take a pottery class, try something new!
Clay Expression offers classes for both adults and children alike.
4. Painting Classes
Painting is a therapeutic process. Places like Café Atas59 allow you to kick back and unleash your inner Picasso over a meal and coffee with your ah gong and ah ma’s for a CNY to remember.
5. Stand Up Comedy
Whoever said laughter was the best medicine definitely knew what they were talking about. A night’s dose of local comedy could very well be exactly what the doctor ordered to rid you of your festive drama blues.
Pay places like The Joke Factory a visit for a fun time!
Will you be visiting any of these places during CNY? Let us know in the comment section below!
