Forecast Intelligence Summary
The 2026 forecast projects an 11.6% increase in bookings driven by expanded MICE activity and the Visit Malaysia 2026 mid-year campaign. However, elevated regional geopolitical tensions and flight connectivity disruptions may suppress Q3 performance by approximately 8–12%. SPICE Arena and PICC are expected to lead growth.
