Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best way to get to the venue?
You could either travel there by private transport or cab. We are big advocates of commuting via public transport but unfortunately, there are limited means of getting to the venue in that manner at this point in time. Keyword here is ‘carpool’ people!

 

Where do I park and how much?
There is ample basement parking available. Parking fees are RM1 for the first 3 hours. Weekend parking is a flat rate of RM2 for all-day parking; which works out fine as all TEDxsters will be having too much fun all day to leave too soon!
What do I get for shelling out RM100 for my ticket?
This is a not-for-profit event and the fees collected helps lower the costs involved in securing the venue, food & beverages, speakers’ travel expenses & accommodation, stage setups, etc. And then the golden opportunity to meet, exchange and have your mind blown away by the presence of so many interesting people like yourself on an intimate, personal level; all in one room? Priceless.

 

Is it a free-seating event?
Yes, so come early to secure your seats. With that being said, we like playing the ‘musical chairs mentality’. Shuffle around now and then and sit in different places. The prize is in getting to know the person in the next seat.

 

Can we buy tickets at the door?
Yes. Tickets for walk-in participants are sold at RM120 at the door. We encourage you to purchase the tickets online in advance right here on our official website. Click on the red button feature that appears on the top right corner of our page or go directly here: https://www.flickevents.com/tedxkl-we-have-a-secret You save RM20!
I would like to buy tickets in bulk, can I get a discount?
Every single contribution is important and highly appreciate in aid of reducing operational costs of the event. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer any discounts for bulk purchases for the moment.

Is smoking, food and drinks allowed in the event hall?
Smoking, food and drinks are strictly prohibited in the event hall. If you must smoke, there are designated areas for smoking outside of the building.

Special note: The month of August is the holy month of Ramadhan for our Muslim friends whereby a month-long fast is observed. This practice of fasting or puasa is an act of faith and abstinence from earthly pleasures and curbing evil intentions and desires. Our Muslim friends will therefore not be eating, drinking or smoking during the daylight hours. As such, please be mindful during this time of activities that involve food and smokes; and use some discretion.

Everyone is more than welcomed to join our Muslim friends at the break of fast at the end of the day atwith good food and good conversation!

 

Is lunch and dinner provided?
As it is the fasting month of Ramadhan, lunch will not be served. In light of that, light refreshments will be served during the break for our non-Muslim friends.
Buffet dinner will be served to all participants after the official break of fast or buka puasa time.

 

Where are the restroom facilities located? Are they disable-friendly? Are they parent & child friendly?

Do refer to our venue layout plan for a clearer picture below. Yes we do have toilet provisions for the disabled and for the weary parent and child but do check with our youth ambassadors at the registration desk.
