Labuan Square or Dataran Labuan is situated in downtown Labuan. Besides a football field, the square features an open-air stage, the main venue for the island’s major events and performances.
Backing the stage is a raised platform with flags belonging to the 14 Malaysian states arranged in a semi-circle, as well as replicas of ‘The Chimney’, one of Labuan’s most famous landmarks.
The picturesque western end of Labuan Square is also beautifully landscaped with a variety of flowers, plants and fountains.
