Lost World of Tambun's Own Promo Codes: RM40 Off an Ipoh Day Ticket, RM450 Off the Hot Springs Pass
Sunway Lost World of Tambun prints two promo codes on its own ticket store and explains neither. We put both through the cart on 7 September 2026, re-tested them on 8 September, and the results invert. On day tickets, WS2602MYKAD is the real one: a Malaysian adult theme park ticket falls from RM160 to RM120, a child from RM140 to RM103, and a night park adult from RM130 to RM100. WS2602ONLINE is worth only RM5 to RM7 there. On the Hot Springs and Night Park Annual Pass it is the other way round. WS2602MYKAD is refused outright, while WS2602ONLINE takes the pass from RM648 to RM198, a RM450 cut that pays for itself on your second night visit. Two things to know before you buy: the store accepts only one code per cart, so the pass and the day tickets have to be two separate transactions, and every night park ticket is void on the nine October and November nights that belong to Screamfest 5.
AEON Ipoh Stamp Card, Till 25 November: Why One RM400 Receipt Earns Less Than Eight RM50 Ones
AEON is running a stamp card at its Ipoh store called Stamp It, Fill It, Redeem It. Cards are issued until 27 October 2026 and the last day to redeem is 25 November 2026. The mechanic looks ordinary until you read the one line that matters: a stamp is earned per receipt, not per ringgit. One receipt of RM50 earns exactly the same single stamp as one receipt of RM400. That inverts the usual supermarket logic and decides whether the card is worth carrying at all. We worked out what a full card costs an AEON member versus a non-member, why the free membership is worth RM240 of avoided spending here, and why redeeming at four stamps quietly cancels the better reward at eight.
Sunway Lost World Hotel Stay & Play, from RM511: the Ipoh Room That Costs RM51 Once You Count the Tickets
Sunway Lost World Hotel in Ipoh is running a Stay & Play package to 30 September 2026, headlined "from RM511 per night" with theme park and hot springs entrance plus breakfast for two. We re-priced it on the hotel's own booking engine on 7 September 2026, searching 17 of the 23 remaining check-in dates. Every rate is unchanged: the same Exotic room without theme park tickets is RM387 on a Sunday-to-Thursday night, so the two park tickets cost RM124, or RM62 a head against a RM125 MyKad adult gate price. Three things did move. The hotel is closed on the night of Saturday 26 September and the engine refuses any stay covering it. Friday is priced identically to Saturday, not as a weekday. And a Monday check-in cannot be fixed by adding a night, because any stay with a closed Tuesday inside it loses the package.
Merdeka Run 2026 Ipoh Is Over — Results Still Aren't Up, and the Next Two Perak Fun Runs Open Now
Merdeka Run 2026 – Ipoh ran at AEON Mall Kinta City on 16 August 2026 and is finished — the Howei listing shows a disabled CLOSED button and AEON Mall has taken its own event page down.
