PPA Tour Returns to Malaysia: Kuala Lumpur to Get Five Days of World-Class Pickleball This September
Kuala Lumpur is about to become the centre of Malaysian pickleball for the best part of a week this coming September. The Leapmotor Kuala Lumpur Cup 2026 brings PPA Asia Tour action to the venue from 9 to 13 September, and for five days, some of the sport’s biggest names will be trading shots within arm’s reach of the local crowd.
Media Prima is on board as official media partner, but the tournament itself is only half the draw. Alongside the courts, organisers are building out Pickletown for the full five days—a sprawling festival zone stacked with food, games, giveaways, exclusive merchandise, and enough activities to keep fans occupied well beyond match time.
Picking the Right Ticket for Leapmotor Kuala Lumpur Cup
Every ticket at this event, regardless of tier, unlocks access to the Championship Court, Grandstand Court, and Pickletown, so nobody’s watching from the cheap seats in the truest sense. Where the tiers actually differ is in comfort, proximity, and extras.
Fans planning to camp out for the full run should look at the Dinker GA Season Pass, which covers all five days with general seating, unlimited re-entry, and full Pickletown access throughout. For those only able to make a single day of it, Banger and Dinker GA single-day tickets are both on offer—Banger seating lands you in the GA Left Stand, directly behind the players, while Dinker seating puts you across in the GA Right Stand instead.
Anyone wanting a genuinely premium experience should look higher up the ladder. The VIP Pass brings reserved seating during prime-time matches, access to a dedicated VIP Lounge stocked with complimentary food and drinks, and the chance to meet professional players face to face during scheduled meet-and-greets.
Sitting at the very top is the Premium Courtside Pass, built for fans who want to be close enough to feel the rallies. It includes front-row seating at the Championship Court, the same VIP Lounge and player meet-and-greet access, priority entry through the gates, and an official merchandise pack worth more than RM2,000 — a genuinely substantial addition on top of the ticket itself.
Merchandise and How to Watch From Home
Official Leapmotor Kuala Lumpur Cup merchandise will be on sale at the venue across all five days, including tour shirts, mini paddles, and collectible toys exclusive to the event, available while stocks last. Fans keen to lock in extra value can pre-order merchandise vouchers through the event website ahead of time, adding bonus value to whatever they pick up at the store on site.
And for anyone who can’t make it to Kuala Lumpur in person, the tournament won’t pass them by entirely—the full PPA Tour action will stream live on Tonton, giving fans well beyond Kuala Lumpur a front-row seat of their own.
