Starplanet, one of Malaysia’s foremost concert promoters, has consistently raised the bar for live entertainment. Renowned for staging illustrious acts—ranging from Jacky Cheung to Andy Lau, Jay Chou, Mayday and the global sensations of SUPER JUNIOR, NCT DREAM and EXO—Starplanet’s reputation is built on polished production value, meticulous planning and stellar audience engagement. Their ability to deliver high-calibre, international-standard concerts has made them a household name among lovers of C-pop and beyond.
Last night, the legendary Cantopop icon Jacky Cheung graced the stage of Axiata Arena, Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur, in what marked the opening of his “60+ Concert Tour” Malaysian chapter—an eagerly anticipated spectacle expertly organised by Starplanet. This concert, the first of six consecutive performances, was the beginning of a two-weekend residency running from 15–17 August and again from 22–24 August 2025.
From the moment the lights dimmed, the arena transformed into a realm of nostalgia, emotion and awe-inspiring artistry. Cheung’s voice, as timeless and resonant as ever, carried through the air, striking chords in both Cantonese and Mandarin. Though precise setlist details remain under wraps, history suggests a blend of beloved classics—such as “Love Is Eternal” and “Forever with You”—balanced with newer orchestrations and dance numbers.
Stage production, Starplanet-style, did not disappoint. Audiences were treated to dynamic stagecraft featuring kinetic platforms, immersive AR visuals, 3D projections, and grand orchestral accompaniment, offering a sensory experience that exceeded expectations. Starplanet framed the tour as a “multi-sensory spectacle that redefines the concert experience”. These enhancements delivered a modern twist on Cantopop, marrying nostalgia with vibrant, cutting-edge design.
The demand preceding the show was nothing short of phenomenal. Tickets for the original trio of concerts sold out within mere hours, prompting Starplanet to add three more shows to satisfy the overwhelming public appetite. This brings the total to six sold-out nights—a testament to Cheung’s enduring appeal and Starplanet’s savvy in concert curation.
The atmosphere inside Axiata Arena last night was charged with excitement and reverence. Long-time fans, some with tear-filled eyes, waved light sticks and joined in chorus with Cheung’s emotive vocals. Moments of genuine interaction—glimpses of the performer’s warmth—made the evening feel deeply personal, not just showy. For many, it was a reconnection with their youth and an embrace of a musical compatriot who has defined generations.
With one show down, five more promise the same fervour, finesse, and flair. Over the coming weekends, fans will flock back—some for the first time, others to relive the thrill—knowing they are part of something that transcends a mere concert. It’s a milestone in Cheung’s illustrious “60+ Tour” legacy, which already boasts hundreds of performances across Asia and commemorated his 1,000th solo concert earlier this year.
As the tour continues, expect equally memorable nights ahead. Starplanet’s commitment to seamless production, alongside Cheung’s uncanny ability to deliver heartfelt, technically superb performances, assures that every subsequent show will stand as a highlight of the season.
The opening night of Jacky Cheung’s six-night Malaysian stint was nothing short of spectacular. Starplanet once again affirmed its status as Malaysia’s elite concert organiser, delivering a flawless orchestration of artistry, technology, and sentiment. As the “Heavenly King” continues to enrapture audiences, Kuala Lumpur stands privileged to host a memory that will echo far beyond the final curtain.
