Shah Alam Stadium, Multi-purpose sports venue in Shah Alam, Malaysia.
Shah Alam Stadium is a multi-purpose sports venue in Shah Alam, Malaysia, with six semi-enclosed levels and a prominent free-standing arc structure. The seating areas hold more than 80,000 people and wrap around a central playing field.
The venue opened in January 1994 and hosted its first match between Selangor and Dundee United, which ended 1-1. After years of heavy use, the site closed for a comprehensive renovation expected to last until 2029.
The stadium served as the primary venue for Selangor FC matches until 2020, drawing thousands of local supporters during Malaysian football competitions.
The venue is currently closed for extensive construction work expected to take several years. The plans include a retractable pitch and improved cooling systems for future visitors.
The redevelopment will link the venue to a new light rail system by 2029 and transform the entire site into a larger sports complex. This conversion shifts the role of the facility from a standalone stadium to a multi-use center with expanded connectivity.
