Arthur's Day 2013 Launch Party @ KL Live

Once again, Arthur’s Day returns to Malaysian shores with international acts who are set to rock the main stage on 27th September 2013. This Arthur’s Day™ is the 5th annual global celebration ‘To Arthur’ which will be held at the Sepang International Circuit, Welcome Centre. I was at the finale in 2011 which was located in Speed Center KL. You can read about my experience at this link.



Before the prestigious event this coming September, I was invited for the Arthur's Day launch party at KL Live. GUINNESS® fans and members of the media across the room were roaring when GUINNESS® announced the exciting line-up of artists this year. Taking the celebrations up a notch, some of the hottest international music stars, Five for Fighting, All American Rejects and The Wanted will be taking the Arthur’s Day™ stage to celebrate the remarkable legacy of this extraordinary man.

Emcee for the launch also their resident Guinness Girl & host, Serena C.
“Arthur’s Day™ celebrates the founder of GUINNESS®, Arthur Guinness, and his remarkable legacy of goodness through music. This year, we pay homage to his bold character and people like him, those who are ‘more’ than just ordinary; much like the Artists that will be rocking the Arthur’s Day™ stage, our Arthur Guinness Fund recipients and our GUINNESS® drinkers, who choose a GUINNESS® every time.” said Bruce Dallas, Marketing Director of Guinness Anchor Berhad.

Since its inception in 2009, Arthur’s Day not only celebrates a legendary brew and its maker, but his legacy of goodness through the Arthur Guinness Fund. Since then, the brand has committed more than €7Million in support of social entrepreneurs around the world. In Malaysia, about RM240, 000 worth of funding were given out to 6 Malaysian social enterprises from the 2012 Arthur Guinness Fund (AGF) in partnership with the British Council Malaysia. This year, GUINNESS® plans to continue its support and champion Malaysian social innovators of our generation with the launch of AGF Entrepreneurs for Good, Year 2 program.

As the preparations for Arthur’s Day™ continues around the world, the celebrations in Malaysia is at full swing.
