Diriyah Company awarded a branch of China Harbour Engineering the contract to build the Arena Superblock: the multi-purpose indoor Diriyah Arena seating 20,000 spectators, three mixed-use office buildings and a parking facility with more than 4,000 spaces. The arena sits on the edge of historic At-Turaif and anchors the Grand Avenue district alongside Diriyah's Grand Mosque.
Diriyah Company awarded a contract worth SAR 5.75 billion ($1.53 billion) to the Branch of China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd (CHEC) for the construction works of the Arena Block[1]
The Arena Block is a district comprising the multi-purpose indoor Diriyah Arena, three mixed-use office buildings and a parking facility, with over 4,000 parking spaces supporting both arena events and the offices[1]
The Diriyah Arena has a gross floor area of approximately 74,000 square metres and a seating capacity of 20,000 spectators, designed as a flexible and scalable venue for concerts, sporting events, esports competitions, exhibitions and live shows[1]
HKS Inc. designed the arena, its design drawing "inspiration from the natural geology surrounding Diriyah, while honoring traditional Najdi architectural elements"; it will join assets including the Royal Diriyah Opera House and nine museums and academies, all taking Najdi elements from the At-Turaif UNESCO World Heritage Site[1]
The three mixed-use office plots, designed by John McAslan + Partners, cover approximately 114,000 square metres "supported by state-of-the-art technology and infrastructure"[1]
CHEC had already been awarded a SAR 758.5 million ($202.2 million) contract by Diriyah Company for bulk excavation works in December 2024[1]
Group CEO Jerry Inzerillo said the arena "will be a landmark entertainment complex in Diriyah that reinforces the City of Earth's growing global role in shaping Saudi Arabia's artistic and cultural future, in alignment with Vision 2030"; CHEC Middle East CEO Yang Zhiyuan called the award "a significant milestone for CHEC in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"[1]
Diriyah, backed by the Public Investment Fund, spans 14 square kilometres and is planned to house approximately 100,000 residents, generate over 178,000 jobs, host approximately 50 million annual visits and contribute around SAR 70 billion ($18.6 billion) directly to Saudi GDP[1]
The release does not place the arena on the edge of At-Turaif or in a Grand Avenue district alongside the Grand Mosque, as the pin does[1]

The 14.1 sq km district launched in 2023 was built around the Mukaab, a 400 m by 400 m cube holding roughly 2 million sq m of floor space and a domed AI-powered display. In January 2026 all work on the cube beyond soil excavation and piling was suspended while its financing and feasibility were reassessed, though development of the surrounding real estate continues; Knight Frank has estimated the district's cost at about $50 billion.

The later, better-evidenced 2030 estimate is followed and dated to the last day of that year.

The 8.4-km stretch is planned as the initial section". December is the last month of the year the pin already sat on, so the day stands at 31 December 2026 - now as the end of a named month rather than a bare year. The full Aerocity-Tughlakabad corridor follows later.
