CUCKOO Malaysia marked its 12th anniversary with a massive celebration at Stadium Merdeka on 25 October 2026, drawing close to 15,000 fans to the CUCKOOTOPIA 12th Anniversary Appreciation Concert. The star-studded event featured CUCKOO Global Brand Ambassador Lee Junho alongside local icons Dato’ Sri Siti Nurhaliza and Phei Yong, capping an evening that also included award presentations and recognition for the company’s own staff.
CUCKOOTOPIA 12th Anniversary Concert
The evening began with a pre-concert showcase featuring 50 dancers celebrating Malaysia’s cultural diversity, in line with CUCKOO Malaysia’s role as an official strategic partner for Visit Malaysia 2026. Hosted by Fiza Frizzy, Kamal Adli, and Owen Yap, the opening acts included Emily Chua, Umairah, ODDA, and Janice Yoong from 8TV’s Youthopia.
The main concert featured performances by MIMIFLY, 3P, ELLA, Faizal Tahir, Hujan, Jeryl Lee, Jaclyn Victor, and Taiwanese Mandopop artist Trevor Kuo. ALPHA’s pop energy and the Youthopia talents added further variety to a night that spanned multiple languages and genres.
CUCKOO CSR Friend Firdhaus performed his song Ali before joining Dato’ Sri Siti Nurhaliza for Be Like Water, the company’s CSR theme song. Dato’ Sri Siti Nurhaliza’s solo set was followed by a joint performance of SAMA-SAMA with Jaclyn Victor and Phei Yong, whose lighthearted stage antics included an attempt at singing Bukan Cinta Biasa.
The night reached its peak when Lee Junho took the stage to deafening screams, dressed in a maroon suit accessorized with a batik handkerchief as a nod to the event’s Floral Batik dress code. Fan interactions on the big screen kept the crowd in a frenzy before the concert closed with a birthday cake-cutting ceremony and fireworks above Stadium Merdeka.

Pokdepinion: A water filter company rented out Stadium Merdeka and 15,000 people showed up, so maybe CUCKOO should be in the events business.
