8 Things to do in KL & PJ This Weekend: 8 to 10 May 2026

Here’s our guide to all the happenings this weekend (8 to 10 May 2026), from 818 Bloom by G-Dragon to Unwined Plus’ Dumpling Party, and more.

In case you missed it, Mother’s Day is this Sunday! That means that if you haven’t already, it’s time to lock in and figure out how you’re going to spend the day with mum. Luckily for you, there’s never a dull moment in our beautiful city, and this weekend is chock-full of events. Whether it’s Breakfast Club at Universal Bakehouse with Lilin + Co or Mother’s Day markets at The Campus Ampang and Locus, mum is spoiled for choice this weekend! That’s not all, either—once mum has well and truly been pampered, there’s plenty more to explore around the city by yourself. Find this weekend’s edition of BURO Weekend Guide below!
