KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 6 — One of Kuala Lumpur’s most intriguing dining pop-ups, Dinner in the Sky Malaysia (DITS), is back after a five-year hiatus; this time with a stunning new view from TREC along Jalan Tun Razak.
Perched 50 metres above ground, the suspended dining experience offers guests not just a thrill but also an unforgettable outlook of the city skyline, including the world’s second tallest building, Merdeka 118.
DITS Asia founder Arvin Randahwa said he was thrilled to finally bring the attraction back in time for Visit Malaysia Year 2026.
“They just announced the Visit Malaysia Year 2026 and even for DITS, 50 per cent of our guests are tourists and we realised now is the perfect time to bring it back especially when our tourist numbers are on the climb recently.
“It’s a great opportunity to bring back DITS,” Arvin told Malay Mail.
DITS first arrived in Malaysia in 2015, making it the first suspended dining platform in South-east Asia and earning a spot in the Malaysia Book of Records.
After touring across states including Penang and Sabah, DITS was forced to take a break in mid-2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the Movement Control Order.
This time, the pop-up dining will run for three months starting November 8, with two one-hour sessions daily.
The KL Sunset session begins at 6.30pm for guests to enjoy views of the evening skyline, while the KL City Lights session starts at 8pm for a panoramic night-time experience.
This round, DITS is partnering with local Sri Lankan restaurant Ceylon House to prepare a three-course meal, offering main course options of fish, chicken, beef, or vegetarian dishes.
Assuring guests of their safety, Arvin said the experience meets international standards certified by TÜV SÜD, a German safety organisation.
“During the flight, guests will be wearing safety belts at all times, and attending staff will be fully equipped with safety harnesses to ensure their safety throughout their time in the air.
“A safety supervisor will brief guests on safety regulations prior to the flight and will be in constant communication with the crane operator and ground crew for a smooth flight.
“All drawings, calculations and simulations have been tested and supervised by TÜV SÜD, a German safety company that validates the safety of products of all kinds to protect humans and the environment against hazards,” he said.
Although the KL pop-up is temporary, Arvin said discussions are underway to bring DITS to other states next year, with Kuching, Sarawak topping the list.
Tickets are priced at RM399 per person. Guests must be at least 12 years old, and those under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
The opening weekend on November 8 and 9 is already fully booked, but other dates remain available.
