The concert venue, which features Baby Shima and several Indonesian singers, was previously relocated from the Millennium Hall in Kepala Batas to the Batu Kawan Stadium in Penang after facing objections from local residents.

This was because the organisation of the concert was alleged to have disregarded the sensitivities of the local community, especially among Muslims.
