KUALA LUMPUR — The Malaysia Open remains one of the nation’s most popular annual sporting events with fans eagerly anticipating the chance to witness the world’s best badminton players in action at Axiata Arena, Bukit Jalil, from January 6 to 11, 2026.

The Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) said fans looking to get a head start can take advantage of the Early Bird Promotion, which offers special discounted rates on tickets starting 2pm on November 3 via www.ticket2u.com.my with the promotion running until November 30.

Early Bird prices apply to all daily tickets, while fans who wish to catch the full week of action may opt for season passes, priced between RM282 and RM2,000, depending on category.

Based on previous years, a rush for tickets is expected once sales open and BAM encourages fans to make their purchases early to avoid disappointment.

To make the event more accessible, ticket prices have been maintained at similar rates to this year’s edition, reflecting BAM’s appreciation for the tremendous support shown by Malaysian fans.

“Fans are advised to purchase their Malaysia Open tickets early and take advantage of the Early Bird Promotion. We’ve seen strong demand in past editions, with popular categories selling out quickly once sales open,” said BAM Secretary-General, Datuk Kenny Goh. 

Malaysia’s world champions Chen Tang Jie–Toh Ee Wei, along with former world champions Aaron Chia–Soh Wooi Yik and this year’s World Championship silver medallists Pearly Tan–M. Thinaah will spearhead the national challenge at the Malaysia Open 2026.

As one of only four BWF World Tour SUPER 1000 tournaments, the Malaysia Open continues to draw world-class shuttlers and passionate fans from around the world, making it a highlight on both the global and national sporting calendars.
