CIMB Artober is CIMB’s flagship cultural platform, championing Malaysian art, culture, and the wider creative economy. Now in its fifth year, CIMB Artober stands as the Bank’s flagship cultural platform under the Kita Bagi Jadi Budaya & Seni pillar, providing leading galleries and cultural entrepreneurs with a high-impact platform for visibility, engagement, and commercial opportunities, while contributing to the growth and economic empowerment of local artists.

This year, CIMB Artober will feature curated invitation-only exhibition booths, bringing together a dynamic mix galleries, lifestyle brands, and emerging artists. The invitation-only format allows us to present a high-calibre selection of creative talent and offers visitors a unique opportunity to discover and engage with some of the region’s most exciting artistic voices.

Beyond the exhibitions, the fair will also feature a series of thought leadership sessions and cultural programmes designed to engage both seasoned collectors and new audiences, fostering meaningful conversations, artistic appreciation, and deeper connections within the creative community.
