This isn’t just a typical store launch; it’s a one-day-only carnival-style celebration packed with family-friendly activities, cultural performances, exclusive promotions, and unforgettable photo opportunities – all right at the new McDonald’s Pandu-Lalu location.
Whether one is a long-time fan of McDonald’s or simply someone who enjoys a good deal paired with a festive environment, this celebration ticks every box. Let’s take a closer look at what’s in store, and more importantly, why it’s worth spending a Saturday soaking in the fun.
A Festive Affair Not to Miss
McDonald’s Jalan Tun Perak Melaka isn’t just cutting the ribbon quietly – they’re throwing a full-scale carnival bash from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM on 17 May 2025. The opening ceremony will kick off with a traditional lion dance, a symbol of luck and prosperity that is sure to draw attention and create a festive atmosphere for all ages.
Then, it’s time for families, friends, and curious locals to fully immerse themselves in a day of interactive activities and games. One of the highlights? A giant McDonald’s replica perfect for selfies – a sure hit on social media. Whether it’s snapping that perfect shot at the 360° Glam Photo Booth or challenging oneself at the Catch the Fries Game, there’s plenty to keep both kids and adults entertained.
Children will love the sand art station and balloon art, while parents can enjoy the nostalgic vibe of a true street carnival. Don’t miss the Meet & Greet with McD mascots, a delightful chance for little ones to see their fast-food heroes in person.
RM2.99 McCafé Special – Only on Grand Opening Day
Now let’s talk about something every Malaysian appreciates – a good coffee deal. On 17 May 2025 only, McDonald’s is offering a limited-time McCafé special that can’t be beat. Guests can enjoy any one of the following beverages for just RM2.99:
-
Latte (Small)
-
Latte Ais (Medium)
-
Americano Ais (Medium)
This deal is exclusively available via the McDonald’s App under the Order & Collect function. It’s the perfect excuse to start or end one’s day with a quality brew at a fraction of the usual cost. In a world where a good coffee usually sets you back well over RM7, this is a solid bargain and a great reason to visit the new outlet.
Party Perks – Birthday Voucher Giveaways
McDonald’s is also using the grand opening to promote their Parties@McD offering. If you or someone you know is planning a birthday bash or group gathering, this is the time to book.
Guests who book a party at the Jalan Tun Perak location during the promotion will receive:
-
Party A Voucher worth RM20
-
Party B Voucher worth RM50
It’s a wonderful bonus that helps take the sting out of planning a celebration, making it easier for parents or organisers to manage costs while still hosting something fun and memorable.
Why Head to McDonald’s Jalan Tun Perak This Saturday?
Besides the clear value from vouchers and the RM2.99 coffee, the true reason to go lies in the experience itself. Here’s why this grand opening deserves your presence:
