@stadiumdb: King Abdullah Stadium, Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 King Abdullah Sports City Stadium is set to host the Spanish Super Cup 2026 final, continuing Saudi Arabia’s role as an international venue for elite football. Located in Jeddah, the stadium offers modern infrastructure, high capacity, and strong event logistics. Its selection reflects the tournament’s global ambitions, commercial reach, and ability to deliver high-profile matches in front of a diverse, international audience, while reinforcing the Super Cup’s expanding overseas format. Saudi Arabia will host the 2034 World Cup. The Saudis had the support of most of Asia, Africa and Central America. Most outraged by their choice are the Australians. They believed that the choice was a foregone conclusion from the start due to Infantino’s close relationship with Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, the Saudi heir to the throne. Besides, FIFA is satisfied with the way the World Cup was organised in Qatar, which was played in November and December for the first time ever. This tournament brought the Saudis significantly closer to their goal. FIFA has relaxed the World Cup award rules for existing stadiums, which is likely to significantly help Saudi Arabia in its bid to host the 2034 tournament. FIFA reduced the required number of existing stadiums from seven to four. The country already has four major stadiums under construction or being upgraded ahead of the 2027 Asian Cup, which it is hosting. One of the existing venues is King Abdullah Stadium in Jeddah.
