Prince Mohammed bin Salman Stadium[a] is an under construction multi-purpose stadium located in Qiddiya City, Riyadh Province, Saudi Arabia. It is set to be a venue for the 2034 FIFA World Cup and has a proposed capacity of 46,979 seats.[1]
The stadium, named after Saudi Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman, was announced on January 15, 2024.[2] Construction began later that year, with the official groundbreaking taking place on December 12, 2024.[3]
Situated within the Qiddiya City development, the stadium features a three-sided bowl that overlooks the Tuwaiq cliffs. Its "futuristic" design incorporates iridescent and LED glass, integrated screens, solar panels, and perforated metal. The venue is expected to become the world's first fully integrated stadium to combine a retractable roof, pitch and LED wall.[4]
Once completed, the stadium is due to host matches for the 2034 FIFA World Cup and serve as the home ground for Saudi Pro League clubs Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal.[5]
