Prince Mohammed bin Abdulaziz Stadium
Medina, Saudi Arabia
The Prince Mohammed bin Abdulaziz Stadium sits within the Prince Mohammed Bin Abdulaziz Sport City complex in the As Salam district of Medina, an area established during the reign of King Khalid. The complex occupies a significant footprint, but the ground itself has a specific gravity. It opened in 1981, a date confirmed by World of Stadiums and Saudipedia, though the construction company remains unidentified.
The playing surface is natural grass, and the capacity stands at 24,000 spectators. Recent renovations have updated the seating and facilities to international standards, yet the total number of seats has not changed. The stadium is named after Prince Mohammed bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, the first governor of the Medina Province, and it has never carried a sponsor-related renaming.
Ohud FC (Al-Ohud Club) has used the venue for many years in the Saudi Premier League and First Division. Al-Ansar FC also calls this ground home. The stadium has hosted matches for the Saudi Arabia national team and the Saudi Arabian Women's Premier League. The highest recorded attendance is attributed to the match between Ohud and Al Hilal on December 12, 2018, which ended in a 0–1 victory for Al Hilal. The stadium was filled to capacity, though a specific numerical attendance figure is not provided in sources.
Other notable events include King's Cup matches, such as Ohud vs. Al Nassr in September 2023. The venue is also used for concerts and national celebrations. Specific costs for renovations are not found. The stadium has no known former names or sponsor-related renamings. It is supervised by the Ministry of Sport.
