King Salman International Stadium is designed to become the highest capacity stadium in Saudi Arabia, and a major new center for sports and recreation. With capacity to seat 92,000 visitors, the stadium will be ideal to host the opening and final matches of the FIFA World Cup 2034™. The stadium will blend into its surrounding topography, with terrain and natural habitat forming part of the stadium’s roof. Aside from its aesthetic appeal, this design will provide effective shading and ventilation tailored to the desert climate. The stadium will be situated just minutes northeast of Riyadh, close to the airport, facilitating easy local and international access. King Salman International Stadium and its precinct will anchor the development’s master plan, contributing strongly to the city’s ongoing urban transformation and surrounding environment.
After the FIFA World Cup 2034™, the stadium will become Saudi Arabia’s official national stadium. As the highest seatedcapacity stadium in Saudi Arabia, it will also attract and accommodate the most significant national occasions, including the largest concerts and sporting events.
