Perak Stadium

Perak Stadium, Football stadium in Kampung Simee, Ipoh, Malaysia.

Perak Stadium is a football venue in Ipoh with an FIFA-standard pitch and seating for about 42,500 spectators distributed across multiple levels. A running track runs around the perimeter of the playing surface.

The site was used as a detention facility during the Malayan Emergency from 1949 to 1959 before the stadium construction started in 1964. The location transformed from a military compound into a sports and community center over the following decades.

Perak FA, which plays in the Malaysian Super League, treats the stadium as its home ground, and its matches are the only occasions when the ground fills to capacity. Outside football, military band competitions and school sports days are held here sporadically. The stadium has also hosted finals of the FAM Cup, Piala Emas Raja-Raja, Agong Cup, Burnley Cup and Bardhan Cup.

The stadium sits in Kampung Simee, within the MBI Sports Complex alongside Indera Mulia Stadium, Sultan Azlan Shah Stadium and Velodrome Rakyat. From the North-South Expressway, leave at the Ipoh Selatan exit near the Makro hypermarket, turn left, then right in front of Kinta City Plaza and follow the signs; the stadium appears on the left before Ipoh Hospital. From the city centre, follow the 'H' signs to Ipoh Hospital, pass it, turn left in front of the Ipoh town mosque, and the stadium is on the right.

The site was a detention camp for communists during the Malayan Emergency from 1949 to 1959, before construction of the stadium began in January 1964. The floodlights have been a persistent problem: in 2023 they were stolen twice.
