The former Shah Alam Stadium (Malay: Stadium Shah Alam) was a multi-purpose stadium and one of the largest stadiums in the world located in Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia. The stadium was the official home of the Red Giants (Selangor) since 16 July 1994, and had a capacity of 80,372. It was used mostly for football matches but also had facilities for athletics.
Despite multiple renovation attempts over the years, the long-term lack of adequate maintenance left the stadium in a state of disrepair. In 2020, after the Malaysian Football League (MFL) announced that the dilapidated condition of the stadium's polycarbonate roof and pitch are inedequate for hosting any Malaysia Super League matches, it was closed down for a thorough reconstruction. On 15 July 2022, the Menteri Besar of Selangor Amirudin Shari said that 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. However the closure turned permanent afterwards as decision was taken to knock down the venue. The demolition works began on 1 July 2024 and were finished on 27 January 2025.
