Save your tears (for the traffic): 130,000 The Weeknd fans set to gridlock Bukit Jalil

Traffic disruptions are expected in Kuala Lumpur, particularly around Bukit Jalil, as The Weeknd concludes his global tour with performances at the National Stadium.

Authorities have warned of severe congestion on major roads and advised motorists to follow on-site guidance and avoid certain routes.

Alternative transportation options include extended operations of Rapid KL train services and designated parking areas away from the stadium.

The tour, which has set record ticket sales and revenue, will conclude with approximately 130,000 attendees over two nights.

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 4 — Motorists and commuters heading towards Bukit Jalil face severe traffic gridlock this evening and tomorrow as Canadian superstar The Weeknd takes the stage at the National Stadium for the two-night finale of his global tour.

With roughly 130,000 concertgoers expected across both nights at the 80,000-capacity arena, traffic authorities have issued advisories warning of heavy delays across major highway arteries feeding into KL Sports City.

Bottlenecks are anticipated along the Shah Alam Expressway (KESAS), the Maju Expressway (MEX), the Kuala Lumpur-Seremban Expressway, the Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2), and local arterial access roads.

Drivers are told to adhere strictly to the instructions of on-site marshals and stay alert for high pedestrian foot traffic around the stadium precinct.

Motorists are specifically advised to avoid Jalan Merah Caga and Jalan Barat, where congestion is expected to peak.

Instead, incoming drivers should stay on the Kuala Lumpur-Seremban Expressway, exit at the Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) junction, and follow navigational signage towards designated parking zones.

To relieve parking pressure around the immediate stadium perimeter, alternative parking has been set up at MRANTI Park and the Calvary Convention Centre.

Concertgoers relying on e-hailing services must use the dedicated pick-up and drop-off facility established at the Endah Parade E-Hailing Hub to prevent curb-side drop-offs from choking stadium access routes.

Better yet, take the train

Public transport operator Rapid KL has extended operating hours across selected train lines on both nights to encourage fans to leave their cars behind. The final boarding cut-off at the Bukit Jalil LRT station on the Sri Petaling Line is set at 12.30am for direct services bound for both Putra Heights and Sentul Timur.

Passengers requiring rail transfers must board at Bukit Jalil significantly earlier to secure connections. Commuters transferring to the LRT Ampang Line or the MRT Putrajaya Line must depart Bukit Jalil by midnight. This allows Ampang Line riders to catch the 12.13am final connection at Chan Sow Lin, while Putrajaya Line commuters can change trains at Sungai Besi before the last services depart for Kwasa Damansara at 12.15am and Putrajaya Sentral at 12.34am.

An earlier 11.30pm departure deadline applies to fans heading towards the LRT Kelana Jaya Line, the KL Monorail, or the MRT Kajang Line. Passengers transferring to the Kelana Jaya Line at Masjid Jamek can catch the final train to Putra Heights at 12.03am or Gombak at 12.17am, while monorail riders at Hang Tuah have until 12.08am for Titiwangsa and 12.10am for KL Sentral. Commuters bound for the MRT Kajang Line face a two-step transit journey: they must transfer to the Putrajaya Line at Sungai Besi by 11.45pm, then complete a second transfer at Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) before final departures at 12.10am towards Kwasa Damansara and 12.13am towards Kajang.

To support transit use, Rapid KL highlighted 15 park-and-ride hubs along the LRT Ampang and Sri Petaling corridors, including facilities at Ampang, Pandan Jaya, Taman Perindustrian Puchong, Kinrara BK5, Sentul, Putra Heights, and Sungai Besi. Another 14 multi-storey car parks are available along the MRT Putrajaya Line, serving stations such as Metro Prima, Sri Damansara Timur, Cyberjaya Utara, UPM, and Taman Naga Emas.

Drivers using official rail-operated parking pay flat daily rates ranging between RM4.30 and RM5.00 per entry, provided they tap in and out using the identical Touch ‘n Go card utilized for their train journey. Parking bay occupancy can be tracked in real time via the MyRapid Pulse mobile application.

The two Bukit Jalil dates bring the curtain down on The Weeknd’s After Hours Til Dawn tour, which etched its name in modern pop history by selling more than 7.5 million tickets and generating over US$1 billion (RM4.1 billion) in box-office receipts, making it the highest-earning concert tour ever mounted by a male solo artist.

由于The Weeknd将在国家体育场举行全球巡回演唱会的最后一场演出，预计吉隆坡，特别是武吉加里尔附近将出现交通中断。

当局已发出警告，主要道路将出现严重拥堵，并建议驾车者听从现场指示，避开某些路线。

其他交通选择包括延长吉隆坡快速列车服务运营时间，以及在远离体育场的指定停车场。

此次巡演创下了门票销售和收入纪录，将在两晚的演出中吸引约 13 万名观众。

吉隆坡，11月4日讯——由于加拿大巨星The Weeknd将在国家体育场举行其全球巡回演唱会的两晚闭幕式，今晚和明天前往武吉加里尔的驾车者和通勤者将面临严重的交通拥堵。

预计两晚将有约 13 万名观众涌入可容纳 8 万人的体育馆，交通部门已发布公告，警告通往吉隆坡体育城的主要高速公路干线将出现严重拥堵。

预计莎阿南大道（KESAS）、马朱大道（MEX）、吉隆坡-芙蓉大道、第二中环公路（MRR2）以及当地主要干道将出现交通瓶颈。

驾驶员被告知要严格遵守现场工作人员的指示，并注意体育场周围人流量较大的区域。

特别建议驾车人士避开 Jalan Merah Caga 和 Jalan Barat，预计这些路段的交通拥堵将达到高峰。

相反，驶入的司机应继续沿吉隆坡-芙蓉高速公路行驶，在马来西亚博特拉大学（UPM）路口驶出，然后按照导航标志前往指定的停车区域。

为了缓解体育场周边停车压力，在 MRANTI 公园和 Calvary 会议中心设立了替代停车场。

依赖网约车服务的音乐会观众必须使用在 Endah Parade 网约车中心设立的专用上下车设施，以防止路边下客造成体育场通道堵塞。

最好还是坐火车。

为鼓励球迷们放弃驾车出行，公共交通运营商Rapid KL已延长部分轻轨线路在两晚的运营时间。斯里白沙罗线武吉加里尔轻轨站开往太子岭和冼都东方向的直达列车，其最后登车截止时间定于凌晨12:30。

需要换乘的乘客必须提前在武吉加里尔站登车，以确保顺利换乘。换乘安邦轻轨线或布城捷运线的乘客必须在午夜前离开武吉加里尔站。这样，安邦线的乘客可以在凌晨12点13分在陈秀莲站换乘最后一班列车，而布城线的乘客则可以在双溪比西站换乘，之后分别于凌晨12点15分和12点34分搭乘最后一班开往瓜沙白沙罗和布城中央车站的列车。

前往格拉那再也轻轨线 (LRT Kelana Jaya Line)、吉隆坡单轨列车 (KL Monorail) 或加影捷运线 (MRT Kajang Line) 的乘客，需在晚上 11:30 前完成出发。在占美清真寺 (Masjid Jamek) 换乘格拉那再也线的乘客，可搭乘凌晨 12:03 开往布特拉高地 (Putra Heights) 或凌晨 12:17 开往鹅唛 (Gombak) 的末班车；在汉都亚 (Hang Tuah) 换乘单轨列车的乘客，可搭乘凌晨 12:08 前开往蒂蒂旺沙 (Titiwangsa) 或凌晨 12:10 前开往吉隆坡中央车站 (KL Sentral) 的末班车。前往加影捷运线的乘客需完成两步换乘：他们必须在晚上 11:45 前在双溪比西 (Sungai Besi) 换乘布城线 (Putrajaya Line)，然后在敦拉萨交通枢纽 (Tun Razak Exchange, TRX) 完成第二次换乘，最后两班列车分别于凌晨 12:10 开往瓜沙白沙罗 (Kwasa Damansara) 或 12:13 开往加影 (Kajang) 方向发车。

为了支持公共交通的使用，Rapid KL重点介绍了LRT Ampang和Sri Petaling走廊沿线的15个停车换乘中心，包括Ampang、Pandan Jaya、Taman Perindustrian Puchong、Kinrara BK5、Sentul、Putra Heights和Sungai Besi的设施。布城线沿线还有 14 个多层停车场，服务于 Metro Prima、Sri Damansara Timur、Cyber​​jaya Utara、UPM 和 Taman Naga Emas 等车站。

使用官方铁路停车场的驾驶员，每次停车需支付4.30至5.00令吉的固定日费，前提是他们使用乘坐火车时所用的同一张Touch 'n Go卡进行进出。停车位占用情况可通过MyRapid Pulse手机应用程序实时追踪。

这两场武吉加里尔演唱会为The Weeknd的“After Hours Til Dawn”巡回演唱会画上了句号。这场巡回演唱会售出了超过750万张门票，票房收入超过10亿美元（41亿令吉），成为有史以来收入最高的男歌手个人演唱会，在现代流行音乐史上留下了浓墨重彩的一笔。
