Saudi Arabia is on a stadium-building spree, with plans to construct 15 new stadiums across the Kingdom for the 2034 FIFA World Cup. In a strategic move, the country has announced the construction of a world-class stadium in NEOM, attracting crowds to Saudi Arabia’s most ambitious megaproject.

The NEOM Stadium will be located on levels four and five of the upcoming THE LINE. With a seating capacity of over 45,000, including 4,000 hospitality seats, 1,200 sky box seats, 100 VVIP seats, and 800 VIP seats, an innovative design will place the stadium 350 metres above the ground. Visitors will not only be able to enjoy the matches but also get breathtaking views of the Red Sea and the vast landscapes.

Beyond its role as a sports venue, the NEOM Stadium will be a central hub for community and cultural activities. It will be home to both men’s and women’s professional football clubs and will host major events year-round.

The NEOM Stadium will also align with Saudi Arabia’s efforts towards sustainability. The entire complex will run on renewable energy, primarily sourced from wind and solar power.

In addition to the NEOM Stadium, a FIFA Fan Festival site will be built at THE LINE, where other events related to the tournament will take place. More venues will open nearby to accommodate the influx of fans heading to NEOM to experience the thrill of the FIFA World Cup.
