Tickets and how to attend
Check the official website for ticket release and pricing.
Getting there
By train, walk about 10 minutes to Raja Chulan or Bukit Nanas Monorail station, ride to Hang Tuah, then change to the LRT Sri Petaling Line to Bukit Jalil station, right next to the stadium. Allow about 50 minutes. By Grab it’s 30 to 40 minutes, but expect heavy traffic and surge pricing after big events, so the LRT is usually faster.
Where to stay
