Penang Turf Club

Penang, Malaysia · built 1864

The Penang Turf Club (abbrev. PTC or KLKPP) is one of the three horse racing institutes in Malaysia alongside the Selangor and Perak turf clubs. Established in 1864, it currently owns a now-closed horse racing track near Batu Gantong Road in George Town within the Malaysian state of Penang. The race track has a three-storey grandstand with a capacity of 14,000. In addition to its primary function as a venue for horse racing, the 118.1-acre (47.8 ha) race track includes a nine-hole golf course. In 2024, members of the PTC approved a resolution to dissolve the club within two years and list the race track for sale. The venue held its last horse race end of May in the following year.
