The Shah Alam Stadium (Malay: Stadium Shah Alam) was a multi-purpose stadium located in Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia. It was used mostly for football matches but also had facilities for athletics. The stadium was the official home of the Red Giants (Selangor) since 16 July 1994, and had a capacity of 80,372.[1]
Despite multiple renovation attempts over the years, the stadium was in a state of disrepair resulting from long-term neglect in maintenance.[2] In 2020, the Malaysian Football League (MFL) announced that the dilapidated stadium may be barred from hosting Malaysia Super League matches, due to safety reasons arising from the stadium's polycarbonate roof and pitch being in a poor state. On 15 July 2022, the Menteri Besar of Selangor, Amirudin Shari, said that the Selangor government has appointed Malaysian Resources Corporation Berhad (MRCB) to refurbish the stadium and its surrounding sporting facilities which may cost up to RM787 million, and will be started in early 2023.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] [11]
The demolition of the stadium started on 1 July 2024 and is expected to last until mid-2025.[12][13]
