King Abdullah Sports City Stadium (Alinma Stadium)
Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
Formerly: King Abdullah Stadium, King Abdullah International Stadium, King Abdullah Sports City Stadium
Al-Ahli and Al-Ittihad have shared the pitch at King Abdullah Sports City since 2014.
The stadium opened its account in style. Its first match was the King Cup final between Al-Ahli and Al-Shabab, and the crowd that night, 62,345, has stood as the ground's record ever since. Later fixtures have come close without breaking it: the Pro League opener between Al-Ahli and Al-Nassr drew 60,010, a figure that kept knocking on the door of that opening-night mark.
The name over the entrance has changed more than once. It carried King Abdullah's name until a 2023 rebuild, when it became King Abdullah Sports City Stadium. It now trades as Alinma Stadium, under a sponsorship deal running to 2029.
The pitch itself is natural paspalum, specifically the Pure Dynasty seeded variety, supplied by Atlas Turf International.
