Most venues were pre-existing public-sporting facilities which were reverted to public use after the games. No major retrofitting work were done in most venues as most had been used to host major multi-disciplinary events such as the 1998 Commonwealth Games. At the centrepiece of the activities was the Bukit Jalil National Sports Complex. Incorporating the new 87,411-seat national stadium, it hosted most of the events. A games village was not built. Instead, a "village in the city" concept saw athletes and officials housed in hotels across Peninsular Malaysia. Besides being physically near to the sport venues, it was hoped that it will add vibe to all the states and reduce post-games costs in converting a dedicated games village to other uses. The 21st Southeast Asian Games had 39 venues for the games. 19 in Kuala Lumpur, 10 in Selangor, 4 in Johor and 3 each in Negeri Sembilan and Penang respectively.http://www.kl2001.com/venue1.htm Venues of the Games Official Website usurped https://web.archive.org/web/20011220213100/http://www.kl2001.com/venue1.htm 20 December 2001 State Competition Venue SportsKuala LumpurNational Sports ComplexBukit Jalil National StadiumOpening and closing ceremonies, Athletics (Track and Field)National Aquatic Centre Aquatics (Diving, Swimming, Synchronised swimming)Gymnasium I, Bukit Jalil Billiards and snookerPutra Indoor Stadium GymnasticsMalaysia National Hockey Stadium HockeyBukit Kiara Sports ComplexJuara StadiumNetballNational Lawn bowls CentreLawn bowlsOtherNational Sports Council Sports Complex, Taman KeramatPetanqueKuala Lumpur City Hall Swimming Complex Aquatics (Water polo)Kuala Lumpur Velodrome Cycling (Track cycling)Titiwangsa Stadium Sepak takrawMalaysia Basketball Association Stadium BasketballKuala Lumpur Badminton StadiumVolleyball (Indoor)Malaysian Public Works Department headquartersFencingTenaga National Sports Complex Table tennisMerdeka Square Athletics (Marathon)Titiwangsa Lake Gardens Athletics (Racewalking)National Tennis Centre, Jalan DutaTennisKLFA StadiumFootball (women)SelangorMalawati StadiumBadmintonSungai Buloh Rubber Research Institute of MalaysiaCycling (Mountain biking)Petaling Jaya City Council StadiumFootball (men)Selangor Turf Club Equestrian (Show jumping, Dressage)Universiti Putra Malaysia Equestrian (Cross-country equestrianism)Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Sungai Labu EstateEquestrian (Endurance)Sungai Long Golf and Country ClubGolfUniversiti Tenaga NasionalKaratePMKM Shooting RangeShootingBatu DamRowingJohorTaman Johor Jaya Multi-Purpose HallWeightlifting (competition)Tan Sri Dato' Haji Hassan Yunos StadiumWeightlifting (training)Dataran Bandaraya Johor BahruArchery Pasir Gudang Municipal Council Indoor StadiumPencak silatNegeri SembilanBandar Baru Nilai Cycling (Mass start, Individual time trial)Admiral Marina and Leisure Club, Port DicksonSailingParoi Centre Club Sports CentreBoxingPenangMega Lanes Bowling Centre, PraiBowlingBukit Dumbar Squash CentreSquashPenang International Sports ArenaWushu, Judo Torch relay The 21st SEA Games torch relay ran from 10 March 2001 to 8 September 2001, covering a distance of 7,884 km.

In stylising the "flame" for the logo's design, its tongues have been individually separated and simplified. The logo's weaving formation conveys unity, and a coming together of Southeast Asia's best athletes. Its "weaving" also gives an opportunity to form the Roman numeral XXI, representing the 21st century, as well as having the Kuala Lumpur Games being the 21st edition of the SEA Games.http://www.kl2001.com/logorasmi_english.htm Logo at the Official Website of the Games 7 December 2001 29 January 2016 usurped https://web.archive.org/web/20011207143510/http://www.kl2001.com/logorasmi_english.htm 7 December 2001 The mascot of the 2001 SEA Games is a squirrel named Si Tumas, a short form for Tupai Emas (Golden squirrel).

The national anthem of Vietnam was played as the National Flag of Vietnam was raised. After that, an 11-minute Vietnam segment performance titled "Welcome to Vietnam" was performed by Vietnamese female dancers carrying a giant red flag with them. The performance was divided into three parts. The ceremony concludes with a Malaysian farewell segment performance in which the firework simultaneously released into the sky with 21 mountaineers fall from the roof using the ropes attached to them and distribute gifts to some lucky audiences while the balloons and colourful papers were spread into the air.
