PUTRAJAYA, August 29 — The Ministry of National Unity has announced that the 2026 Prime Minister's National Day Address will take place at 2 pm at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC). The decision to change the venue comes after considering current conditions, with a focus on guest and public safety, health, and comfort.
KPN explained that the 2026 ceremony will serve as a crucial platform to discuss the Madani government's goals for fostering national unity, promoting patriotism, and cultivating a strong connection to the country. Malaysians are invited to join in celebrating National Day and highlighting the importance of mutual understanding, respect, and acceptance of diversity in building a progressive, harmonious, and prosperous nation.
Earlier, the National Day and Malaysia Day 2026 Celebration Working Committee under the Ministry of Communications had announced the move from Dataran Merdeka, Kuala Lumpur, to PICC due to the prevailing haze conditions. MetMalaysia director-general Dr Hisham Mohd Anip had warned that hazy weather was expected to persist across several states until August 31.
