News summary

The Grand Stade Hassan II in Casablanca, Morocco, is set to become the world's largest football stadium with a capacity of 115,000, surpassing North Korea's Rungardo 1st of May Stadium. Designed by Oualalou+Choi and Populous, the stadium features a unique aluminium lattice roof inspired by traditional Moroccan gatherings known as 'moussem'. The stadium will include three steep tiers at each end, accommodating 29,500 general admission fans each, and five hospitality levels for a total of 12,000 VIP guests. Groundwork has begun on a 100-hectare site north of Casablanca, with a budget of $500 million, and it is expected to meet FIFA standards for the 2030 World Cup. The design emphasizes Moroccan culture and aims for 45-60% energy efficiency, showcasing a commitment to sustainability. This project also highlights Morocco's role as a host nation for the World Cup alongside Spain and Portugal.
