Looking for something different to do in Shah Alam over the weekend? Instead of spending the whole afternoon at the usual shopping centres, families, friends and anyone who enjoys discovering local products may want to make their way to TemasyaGlenmarie Welcome Centre for the upcoming Temu Janji Market.

Taking place over two days on 22 and 23 August 2026, this community market brings together a mixture of lifestyle finds, food and beverages, creative activities and family-friendly experiences. Best of all, admission is free, making it an easy weekend outing for those who want to enjoy themselves without having to set aside a large entertainment budget.

The event is organised around the idea of bringing people together in a relaxed market setting. Rather than simply turning up to shop, visitors can take their time browsing different offerings, trying food and drinks, joining activities and checking out what local brands and vendors have to offer.

The event information was shared by Malayan Market through its official social media post: Malayan Market Facebook post

A Weekend Market Worth Visiting

The Temu Janji Market is scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, giving visitors some flexibility when planning their weekend. The market will run from 3pm until 10pm, which is particularly convenient for those who prefer heading out later in the day.

That timing also makes the event rather appealing in the Malaysian climate. Visitors can arrive in the late afternoon, explore the market while the day moves towards evening, grab something to eat and continue enjoying the atmosphere into the night.

There is no entrance fee, so visitors do not have to worry about paying simply to enter the event. That makes it a practical option for families, groups of friends, couples or even anyone who simply wants to explore something new around Shah Alam.

Discover Lifestyle Finds and Local Brands

One of the main attractions of a community market is the opportunity to discover products that may not normally catch attention during a routine shopping trip.

Temu Janji Market will feature a lifestyle market where visitors can browse different local finds and products. For bargain hunters, this is one of the reasons a market like this can be worth exploring. There is always something interesting about walking around a collection of independent vendors and discovering products that may make useful purchases, gifts or simply something nice to take home.

Visitors who enjoy supporting smaller businesses can also use the occasion to learn more about local brands. Instead of relying only on familiar names in major shopping centres, a community market provides a chance to see what independent sellers and local entrepreneurs are offering.

There is also the simple pleasure of browsing without having a strict shopping list. Sometimes the best market finds are the things that were not originally planned.

Come Hungry for Food and Drinks

Food is another important part of the Temu Janji Market experience.

The event will feature food and beverage offerings, giving visitors another reason to arrive around the afternoon and stay into the evening. A weekend market becomes much more enjoyable when there are different things to eat and drink while exploring the stalls.

Visitors can take the opportunity to try something new, enjoy a snack while walking around or settle down for a more relaxed meal before continuing with the activities.

For families, this can also make the outing easier. Rather than having to leave the venue when everyone gets hungry, there will be food and beverage options available as part of the market experience.

Those who enjoy discovering new food vendors should keep an eye out for the different offerings available during the event. Market food can be a good way to find new favourites without committing to a formal dining experience.

Free Creative Workshops for Early Participants

One of the more interesting features of Temu Janji Market is the availability of free creative workshops.

The event will offer Latte / Choco Art and DIY Deco Donut workshops, providing visitors with an opportunity to get involved rather than simply walking around the market.

There is an important catch, however. The free workshops are available to the first 50 participants per day, with terms and conditions applying. That means visitors who are particularly interested in taking part should not leave their arrival until the final hours of the event.

For parents looking for something that can keep children occupied, or friends searching for a hands-on weekend activity, these workshops could be one of the highlights of the visit. They also provide something different from ordinary shopping and dining.

Because places are limited each day, it is sensible to arrive earlier if joining a workshop is one of the main reasons for attending. Visitors should also check the organiser’s latest information for registration procedures and applicable terms before participating.

A Family-Friendly Weekend Outing

The event is not designed only for shoppers. Kids activities are also included, making Temu Janji Market suitable for a family weekend outing.

Parents can browse the lifestyle market while children enjoy activities prepared for them. This gives the event a broader appeal compared with a conventional shopping trip, where younger visitors may quickly become bored.

It is also an opportunity for families to spend time together without necessarily spending a lot of money. With free admission and selected free activities, families can enjoy the atmosphere while deciding what they would actually like to purchase.

Friends and couples can also make an evening of it by visiting the market, trying some food, taking part in a workshop and exploring the surrounding area.

Take a Look at the Temasya Prisma Show Unit

Another feature worth checking out during the visit is the Temasya Prisma Ready Show Unit.

For anyone interested in homes, property or simply curious about the development, the show unit offers an additional reason to spend some time at the venue. Visitors can combine their market outing with a look at the ready show unit instead of making a separate trip.

This combination of market activities and a property showcase makes the event more than just a typical weekend bazaar. There is a little something for different interests, whether the priority is food, shopping, family activities, creative workshops or exploring the development.

Why Should They Go?

The biggest reason to visit Temu Janji Market is that it offers a relatively easy way to enjoy a weekend afternoon without needing a large budget.

Free entry immediately makes the event accessible, while the combination of food, shopping and activities gives visitors plenty to explore once they arrive. The free creative workshops add even more value, although the limited first-50-participants-per-day arrangement means early arrival is recommended for those who want to secure a place.

It is also a good opportunity to support local vendors and discover brands that may not be familiar yet. Instead of spending another weekend doing the same routine, visitors can use these two days to explore something happening within Shah Alam.

For families, the children’s activities make the market more appealing. For food lovers, there are food and beverage choices to explore. For creative people, the Latte / Choco Art and DIY Deco Donut workshops offer something hands-on. For those interested in property, the Temasya Prisma Ready Show Unit adds another stop to the itinerary.

Most importantly, visitors can decide how they want to enjoy the event. They can arrive in the afternoon, browse the stalls, have a meal, join an activity and stay until the evening. There is no need to rush through everything in one visit.

The Temu Janji Market is therefore worth adding to the weekend calendar, particularly for anyone around Shah Alam looking for a free-entry community event with food, local discoveries and family-friendly activities.

If the free workshops are the main attraction, arriving early would be the smarter move because participation is limited to the first 50 participants per day. For everyone else, simply turning up between 3pm and 10pm provides plenty of time to explore the market and enjoy the weekend atmosphere.

With free admission, a selection of lifestyle products, food and drinks, children’s activities and creative workshops, this is the sort of community event that can turn an ordinary weekend into a more enjoyable outing without putting too much pressure on the wallet.
