The Group also offers flexible packages to help local production houses get back on their feet after two years of absence due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
YTB’s Chief Operating Officer, Datuk Zoe Tan, said, “The uniqueness of Encore Melaka has given us the leverage to produce various live shows in collaboration with artists via its unique features.

Sales of the tickets have been on track, and we see a lot of interest in these live shows despite the absence of foreign tourists. As we continue to reopen our international border and ease the process to travel into Malaysia, this will drive the recovery of our theatre business,” Datuk Zoe said.

At the same time, the other venue spaces can cater to many mega-events such as charity runs, triathlons, competitions and festivals.
According to Datuk Zoe, enquiries regarding the availability of Encore Melaka events have increased with the reopening of the economy.
“We have received a lot of enquiries on the availability of Encore Melaka for events at the beginning of this year. There are a lot of plans, such as 2 mega-events – City Drift in June 2022 & Year-end countdown in December 2022 that are in the pipeline. Both events were able to draw domestic and international tourists’ visits to Encore Melaka.” she said.
