What is confirmed
- Exhibition: Pameran Magis dan Logam: Semangat, Kuasa dan Seni
- Dates: 1 June–30 December 2026
- Venue: Perak Museum, Jalan Taming Sari, 34000 Taiping, Perak
- Organiser/listing authority: Department of Museums Malaysia (Jabatan Muzium Malaysia)
JMM’s current site lists Perak Museum operating hours as 9:00 AM–5:00 PM and its recently updated museum page lists RM2 adult tickets, with free admission for children below 12 and children in school uniform. However, another English-language JMM museum page still carries older, conflicting hours and fee information. Because the official pages are not fully aligned, confirm the latest visitor details with the museum before making a time-sensitive trip.
9 September: Bicara@Muzium Perak
JMM’s current programme listing shows Bicara@Muzium Perak: Magis dan Logam on Wednesday, 9 September 2026 at Bilik Seminar Dato Shahrum Yub in the Perak Museum office building. As checked on 8 September, the public listing confirms the date and venue but does not state the start time, a registration requirement or a separate admission fee. Visitors interested in the talk should contact Perak Museum before going specifically for the session.

A useful rain-day stop in Taiping
Perak Museum is one of Taiping’s most important heritage anchors and is close enough to combine with a Lake Gardens and old-town day. Rather than travelling out of Taiping for an event, this exhibition adds another reason to spend more time in town itself, especially when the weather turns wet.
One nearby heritage caution
If you are also planning a Matang heritage excursion, JMM currently announces that the Galeri Rumah Ngah Ibrahim is temporarily closed to visitors from 1 September 2026. The announcement does not give a reopening date, so check its current status before building a Matang visit around that gallery.
Staying in old Taiping
Perak Museum works naturally as part of a Taiping stay: visit the museum, continue towards the Lake Gardens or old town, and return without turning the day into a long intercity excursion. If you are planning several days around Taiping’s heritage and nature, Sojourn is at 54 Jalan Kota in the old-town area.
An advance enquiry is non-binding and does not reserve, hold or guarantee a room or date until Sojourn checks availability and confirms it.
