Saudi Arabia has unveiled plans for a stadium 350 metres above the ground on top of The Line mega city, which is being built as part of Neom.

Revealed as part of Saudi Arabia's official bid submission to FIFA for the 2034 World Cup, the 46,000-seat venue is one of 15 stadiums that will host games during the tournament.

Few details are available about the design of the Neom Stadium and its architect has not been made public.

It is planned to be integrated into the first section of The Line, which is currently under construction.

These are excavations for the Spine (Transport and Goods high-speed train). Why now? The project infrastructure must be completed in the first phase, in addition to there is an airport that must be connected to the hidden marina

Why oh why did they start on the full 170km length?

That just makes no sense and will lead to inevitable failure.

Start with 5km instead and then see how it goes.

This week on Dezeen, we reported on the news that Saudi Arabia is scaling back the expected population it hopes The Line mega city will reach by 2030.

News agency Bloomberg reported that officials expect The Line, which is the flagship development for Saudi Arabia's Neom project, to house fewer than 300,000 people by 2030 compared to an original goal of 1.5 million
