The architectural design of two new stadiums in Dubai have been approved by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of The Executive Council of Dubai.

The new stadium of Shabab Al Ahli – Dubai Club will be built at Al Ruwayyah 3, while the new Al Wasl Club stadium will come up at Al Jaddaf.

They are designed to accommodate over 20,000 spectators each.

The projects reflect the government's commitment to raising the community’s participation in sporting activities and upgrading the infrastructure needed to host major events.

The Shabab Al-Ahli stadium has an avant-garde design featuring a lofty circular roof supported by columns simulating the moon, and an outer space symbolising unity and balance.

It also features eco-friendly systems and a design that aligns seamlessly with smart city requirements.

With an innovative '‘city within a city' design concept, the Al Wasl Club stadium exemplifies Dubai’s unique urban identity through its integration of open spaces.

Its design is also aligned with sustainability principles and the requirements of smart cities, reflecting a forward-thinking approach in stadium architecture.

"The project demonstrates the dynamic evolution of Dubai's sporting sector and the emirate’s dedication to enhancing sporting achievements and widening the fan base. It also underscores Dubai's ambition to solidify its position as a leading global sports hub, in line with its future aspirations," said His Highness Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of the Dubai Sports Council.

Mattar Al Tayer, Vice Chairman of the Dubai Sports Council, announced the setting up of a dedicated team comprising officials of the Roads and Transport Authority, Dubai Municipality, Dubai Sports Council, Shabab Al Ahli – Dubai Club and Al Wasl Club to oversee the stadium project.

Their first task is to assign the construction work to a specialised firm committed to ensuring the highest quality standards and completing the project within the agreed timeframe.
