Malaysia March school break: find a trip from Kuala Lumpur
Malaysia's Ministry of Education (KPM) publishes separate calendars for Group A and Group B states. Kuala Lumpur and Penang are in Group B, where the March break runs 6–14 March 2027. The example departs from Kuala Lumpur for five days, and you can choose Penang in the trip tool. Group A states follow different dates.
