KJH Sarawak Carnival Heads to Miri

After a roaring debut in Kota Samarahan, the Karnival Jom Heboh (KJH) Sarawak Segulai Sejalai is gearing up for its next stop in Miri at the end of September. Organisers promise the same high‑energy mix of live music, food stalls and interactive games that won fans over last month. The move to Miri widens the carnival’s reach, tapping into a new regional audience and giving local businesses a boost. With tickets already on sale, the event is positioned as a summer‑late‑autumn highlight for families and tourists alike, reinforcing Sarawak’s reputation for vibrant, community‑driven festivals. The line‑up also includes traditional dance troupes and a showcase of Sarawak’s indigenous crafts, adding cultural depth to the party atmosphere.

Miri’s hospitality sector stands to gain from the influx of visitors, while local artists get a platform to reach wider audiences, making the carnival a catalyst for both economic and cultural growth in the region.

By taking the carnival to Miri, organisers are decentralising entertainment beyond Kota Samarahan, showcasing Sarawak’s diverse talent pool and stimulating tourism in the northern corridor. This strategy not only diversifies revenue streams but also strengthens regional identity and community pride.
