When I first received the invitation to attend Malaysia’s first Glamping Night 2014 by Kirin Ichiban, I was like what in the world is Glamping? I looked up the meaning of Glamping and felt embarassed for being ignorant the first time #supershy

“Glamping is a hybrid of the conventional camping experience with a Japanese twist”.

Thanks to Kirin Ichiban, I learned the true meaning of Glamping and I get to experience it myself. It was one-of-a-kind experience that combined the best of camping with glam and Japan. From the beginning till the end, everything was Japanese-inspired.
We were to bring our very own origami tent which was included in the invitation card to entitle for an entry to Kirin Ichiban Glamping Night and also in exchange for a card to collect 4 stickers to entitle for the lucky draw. The prize was a trip to Japan! #determinedtowin
The first sticker was collected at the entrance. We were each given a lantern to decorate which were later used to decorate the ambiance.




Glampers’ lanterns enhancing the overall atmosphere.
Tents were spread across the White Box, where Glampers had to experience all Japanese-themed activities to complete their ‘checklist’. Activities included Kendama (traditional Japanese game), arts and crafts, which included DIY silkscreen art and a DIY box seat, and delectable Japanese bento boxes. What an experience!





A fun-filled night of Japanese-inspired performances and activities. A memorable night and we all had lots of fun! Glampers were required to complete every checkpoint to be.


Glampers required to do some Kendema tricks to entitle a sticker. It was tough at first, but later it got pretty addictive. I learned a few tricks and almost got brainwashed to be a Kendema player. LOL

At this station, we get to ink our very own Kirin Ichiban bag. It was fun and hilarious at the same time. Watch the video below.

The last checkpoint was the food station. Glampers were required to eat and returning the bento tray to entitle the last sticker.
Upon completion of all activities, Glampers stood a chance to win the ‘prize of a lifetime’ by submitting their completed checklist and each Glampers receive a crate of 4 cans of Kirin Ichiban upon submission of our completed checklist.

The ‘prize of a lifetime’ is a 5-day-3-night trip to Japan which includes an exclusive tour of Kirin Brewery and an experience at the annual Chichibu festival. The lucky winner of the night was Clione Sia.
