PASAR MALAM 2025
Our biggest and most beloved event returns for 2025!
Pasar Malam returns on Friday 14 November from 5pm - 10pm, with a myriad of cuisines, performers and crafts from all over the globe, woven through the charming laneways, gardens, and promenades of Curtin’s Bentley campus.
Named after the Malay and Indonesian phrase for “night market”, this FREE community event is a vibrant celebration of international food and culture which brings people together to enjoy friendship, family and delectable food.
Pasar Malam is proudly brought to you by Curtin Student Guild.
Bring your friends and travel the globe, one plate at a time!
