Kuala Lumpur · Sports & events
SPORT & SEASON
A national stadium, a MotoGP circuit an hour south, and badminton played on every spare court.
Bukit Jalil National Stadium
Malaysia's national football team and the capital's clubs play in this 87,000-seat bowl; the domestic Super League season now runs across the turn of the year.
Sepang International Circuit
An hour south of the city, Sepang hosts the Malaysian motorcycle grand prix late in the season and endurance racing through the year. General admission is inexpensive.
Malaysia Open badminton
The country's flagship badminton tournament fills Axiata Arena early in the year, and public courts across the city take walk-in bookings by the hour.
Sepak takraw and futsal
Takraw nets go up at community courts and the national league plays in modest halls; futsal centres across the city rent pitches late into the night.
