Imagine Dragons in Malaysia 2024 concert guide: How to get to Bukit Jalil National Hockey Stadium
Heading to see Imagine Dragons live at Bukit Jalil National Hockey Stadium? Here’s your go-to guide for reaching the venue easily, avoiding parking stress, and knowing exactly what to expect on concert day. Located within Kuala Lumpur Sports City, the stadium is best accessed by public transportation, which will save you time and help you dodge the concert crowds on the road.
The LRT is hands down the easiest way to get there. Take the Kelana Jaya LRT line and transfer at Masjid Jamek station to the Sri Petaling line. From there, hop on a train headed toward Putra Heights, and disembark at Bukit Jalil station. Once you’re off the train, it’s only a 4-minute walk to the stadium. Plus, for the concert night, the LRT will run extended hours until 11.50 PM.
If driving is your only option, parking is available at the National Hockey Stadium Parking Field, though spaces are limited with only 150 spots. Alternatively, you can try Parking Lots A, B, or C near Bukit Jalil National Stadium. These lots offer a total of over 2,000 spaces, with a quick 8-minute walk to the concert venue. Parking fees range from RM10 to RM20, payable via credit/debit card or Touch’n Go.
Here are the number of available lots for each car park:
National Hockey Stadium Parking Field: 150 lots
Parking Lot A: 150 lots
Parking Lot B: 907 lots
Parking Lot C: 1,020 lots
Looking for a clever hack? Consider parking at the Awan Besar LRT station and hopping on the train to Bukit Jalil—it’s only two stops away and will help you avoid the post-concert traffic jam.
