Getting there: route maps
Hand-drawn and schematic, not to scale. Distances are not measured. Open Google Maps or the MyRapid app for live routing.
Route 1: LRT Sri Petaling line to Bukit Jalil, then walk (what fans used)
- Take Rapid KL's LRT Sri Petaling line and ride to Bukit Jalil station. From Putrajaya MRT line use Route 2.
- Leave by the entrance that faces the sports complex.
- Walk through the market and plaza area to the stadium steps.
- Join the security queue and find your gate. Gate-by-gate walking times were not found.
Time, as fan accounts: about 10 minutes from the station to the main entrance (a June 2026 blog) and 5-10 minutes (Rapid KL's guide for The Weeknd). Neither counts the security queue: one fan at Ed Sheeran (2024) took nearly an hour to get in at Gate C. Cost: we did not find the LRT fare; pay with a Touch 'n Go card with enough balance (Rapid KL advice).
Bukit Jalil station is on the LRT Sri Petaling line. Other lines named in concert advice (Ampang, MRT Putrajaya) are connections, not extra lines at the station.

source · checkedRoute 2: park at a rail station, or change from the MRT Putrajaya line
- Driving: park at a station on the LRT Sri Petaling line or the Putrajaya line, not at the stadium (fans suggest Awan Besar and Sri Petaling).
- Tap in with your Touch 'n Go card (the same card pays for park-and-ride and the train).
- Ride to Bukit Jalil and walk as in Route 1.
- From the MRT Putrajaya line: go to Sungai Besi and change to the LRT Sri Petaling line.
Costs seen at past shows: RM4.30 to RM5 a day at rail park-and-ride (The Weeknd reporting); a fan reported RM30 instead of RM3 at Sri Petaling (Bruno Mars 2024) and another RM20 (2025). One-off reports, not tariffs. Check the return train time for your night before you park.
For The Weeknd (Nov 2026), reports listed rail park-and-ride along the Ampang/Sri Petaling and Putrajaya lines at RM4.30 to RM5 a day, with the same Touch 'n Go card for parking and train. Examples: Putra Heights, Kinrara BK5, Taman Perindustrian Puchong.
source · checkedAwan Besar LRT: a directory lists RM4.30 per entry for LRT users, higher for non-users (RM3 first hour, then RM1/hour, max RM15). A fan thread (Feb 2024) recommends it and says it is two stops from Bukit Jalil. Not checked against the operator's tariff.
