In conjunction with the Centre Point Mall's 32nd anniversary in August 2022, the Centre Point shopping centre mall has planned several events, which include the Cosmaniac Cosplay Showdown (August 6–7, 2022), Mobile Legends Bang Bang Champion (August 13–14, 2022), Pikachu Showcase (August 21–27, 2022) and Shop and Redeem: Free Lunch Bag (September 9-22, 2022).[13][14]
The Hilton KK and Marriott KK are about 2 km away from each other, but a Grab ride including the waiting time took a person close to 20 minutes. However, The Skybridge Kota Kinabalu has changed the walktime and time perspective for pedestrian since 2024.[15][16][17]
