Isi Rimba is next to Sungai Semaping and is located in Selangor, Malaysia. Another easy landmark is that the location is behind Zoo Negara (National Zoo). However, the organaizers have stated that for the ticket price, they will pick up guests from a location at Taman Melawati (place to be confirmed) and shuttle them to and from the venue. Most likely it could be the Taman Melawati LRT Station.
