Visionary 47,000-Seat Stadium unveiled in Khobar

ROSHN and Aramco Join Forces to Build a State-of-the-Art Stadium in Khobar

In a groundbreaking collaboration that promises to redefine sports and entertainment in Saudi Arabia, ROSHN, the Kingdom’s leading national real estate developer, has announced a partnership with global energy giant Aramco to construct a 47,000-seat stadium in Khobar. Slated for completion by 2026, this multi-purpose venue will be a central hub for both national and international events, including the highly anticipated 2027 AFC Asian Cup.

The design of the Aramco Stadium draws inspiration from the Arabian Gulf, with its unique structure echoing the natural whirlpools found off Saudi Arabia’s coast. The stadium will be equipped with cutting-edge facilities, ensuring it meets the highest global standards for inclusivity, safety, and sustainability. Once completed, it will stand as a landmark in the Eastern Region, offering a premier destination for sports and entertainment.

This ambitious project is a significant milestone for ROSHN as it expands its portfolio to include sports facilities, marking a new phase in the company’s growth. The initiative also aligns with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 Quality of Life program, which aims to enhance the well-being of its citizens by promoting active lifestyles and boosting the country’s sports economy.

“The development of Aramco Stadium represents our commitment to creating vibrant communities where people can thrive and pursue their passions,” said a ROSHN spokesperson. “We are excited to work with Aramco on this project, which will undoubtedly become a beacon of pride for the nation.”

As Saudi Arabia prepares to host major international events, the Aramco Stadium is set to play a pivotal role in showcasing the Kingdom’s evolving landscape and its growing influence on the global stage.
