Johor remains a crowd favourite for Jom Heboh

Johor Baru residents have shown strong support for the Jom Heboh carnival, indicating the event's enduring relevance and popularity. Karnival Jom Heboh project director Eileen Lim reported that the response from visitors had remained consistently impressive over the three days of the event, which featured products and services from more than 150 small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and corporations from Malaysia and abroad.

Lim emphasized that Johor is a must-visit location for KJH due to the exceptional response from Johoreans. The carnival's success can be attributed to its focus on family-oriented activities, offering benefits to the community, and providing entertainment, celebrity appearances, and community activities such as free health and dental screenings, information on services, and special promotions from leading brands.

The event caters to families who enjoy spending time together, watching performances, savoring various food options, and receiving useful information. Lim also highlighted that the public continues to attend KJH despite its 23-year existence, as the programme is regularly refreshed to align with contemporary trends at each location.

The final leg of KJH 2026 will take place at Stadium Merdeka in Kuala Lumpur from November 27 to 29. The three-day KJH Johor Baru 2026 wrapped up on Friday with a two-hour closing concert featuring Wany Hasrita, Alyph, Mariam Saim, Mamat Exist, and Drama Band, hosted by Amirulhakim Lokman and Haiza of Kool FM.
