Kuala Lumpur, 4 December — BookXcess is about to make history in Malaysia and Southeast Asia. At the stroke of midnight on 10 December, the brand will unlock the doors to The Library by BookXcess — the largest 24-hour bookstore in Southeast Asia, a 38,000 sqft monument to imagination, design, culture, and fearless ambition.
This is not just another bookstore opening. This is a once-in-a-generation phenomenon.
Rising over two dramatic levels at Sunway Square, The Library fuses architectural spectacle with Sunway’s rich tin-mining heritage — a space designed to stop people in their tracks. Expect towering floor-to-ceiling shelves, a striking mezzanine, hidden nooks, soaring structures, and an energy that shifts and evolves with every hour of the day… and every hour of the night.
This is more than a bookstore. It’s a cultural engine, a landmark for knowledge, and a space that never sleeps.
A lineup of lifestyle partners elevates the experience, transforming The Library into an all-day, all-night hub of exploration and inspiration:
- Kenny Hills Bakers – Organic artisanal breads, pastries, and an all-new menu from a Malaysian-born neighbourhood bakery brand now joining the Sunway community.
- Becon Stationery – a proudly Malaysian brand delivering quality stationery
- FRAK/TURE Fashion Studio – avant-garde thrift and fashion store grounded in a brutalist, engineered aesthetic
- Good Mojo Smoothies – A new Malaysian-grown smoothie and juice brand offering clean ingredients and bold, energising flavours.
Together, they form a living ecosystem that Malaysia has never seen before: a space to gather, study, dine, create, collaborate, or to simply exist.
With its doors open 24 hours, The Library by BookXcess is poised to become Malaysia’s next cultural landmark — a magnet for locals, travellers, creators, families, and night owls, not just from Malaysia, but from around the world. This is a bookstore that will be remembered.
Mark the date. Witness history unfold. On the night of 11 December, don’t let a once-in-a-lifetime moment pass you by. RSVP to the midnight launch HERE NOW.
