Saudi Arabia is poised to make history as the proud host of the FIFA World Cup™ 2034, a monumental event that promises to redefine the future of football and leave an indelible mark on the world’s sporting stage. As the first nation to welcome 48 teams to a single country for the tournament, Saudi Arabia is ready to showcase not only its footballing passion but also its rich heritage, boundless hospitality, and cutting-edge innovations. Through its Saudi, Welcome to Arabia brand, the Saudi Tourism Authority (STA) is inviting football fans and travelers from every corner of the globe to experience the essence of the Heart of Arabia.
The host cities selected for the FIFA World Cup™ 2034 are as diverse and dynamic as the Kingdom itself. Riyadh, Saudi Arabia’s bustling capital, will blend modern architecture and entertainment with the timeless allure of Diriyah, the historic birthplace of the Kingdom. Jeddah, a city of contrast, offers the sparkling shores of the Red Sea alongside the historic charm of Al Balad, a UNESCO World Heritage site where old-world beauty meets cosmopolitan flair. Al Khobar, a peaceful coastal city, will delight fans with its beaches and rich cultural landmarks, while Abha, perched in the mountains, offers lush green landscapes and a playground for adventure seekers. NEOM, the ambitious futuristic city under development, promises to captivate with its groundbreaking innovations and environmental sustainability, providing a glimpse into the future of urban living. Each of these cities will provide state-of-the-art stadiums, world-class infrastructure, dynamic fan zones, and authentic cultural experiences that capture the essence of Saudi Arabia’s vibrant spirit.
To celebrate the successful bid, STA has already begun to engage the world with dynamic, interactive events in key international cities. Flash mobs in London’s Piccadilly Circus and the Dubai Mall fountain served as dazzling preludes to the excitement surrounding the World Cup, giving passersby a taste of Saudi Arabia’s vibrant culture and the diversity of cities that will host the tournament. At home, celebrations were held at iconic sites including Salwa Palace, Historic Jeddah, Hegra, Rijal Almaa, and Ithra, inviting citizens and visitors alike to come together in solidarity and joy as the countdown to the tournament began.
With a growing passion for football and a proven track record of hosting world-class sporting events, Saudi Arabia is ready to share its extraordinary landscapes and rich cultural heritage with the world. Beyond the matchdays, visitors will be treated to Saudi Arabia’s remarkable natural beauty, from the sparkling waters of the Red Sea with its pristine coral reefs, to the sweeping dunes of the Rub’ al Khali desert, to the towering peaks and lush valleys of the Asir Mountains. From the vast expanse of the desert to the innovation of NEOM, Saudi Arabia is not only offering a football spectacle but a journey through time, tradition, and transformation.
With its blend of ancient history and modern innovation, Saudi Arabia is set to redefine the global sports landscape and offer fans an unforgettable World Cup experience, welcoming the world to a country where football, culture, and hospitality unite in spectacular fashion.
