Saudi Aramco is working in cooperation with the Public Investment Fund (PIF)-owned ROSHN Group to equip the new facility with the latest global technologies and integrated cooling systems, creating an ideal environment for spectators.

 

The stadium bowl will be whirlpool-shaped, inspired by the watery spirals commonly seen on the coast of Al Khobar.
