The Competitions Committee of the Gulf Football Federation has reviewed the final-stage arrangements for the 27th Arabian Gulf Cup, with the title decider set to take place in Jeddah. The final is scheduled for Tuesday, 6 October 2026, at 9:00 p.m. Saudi time, bringing together Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
The match will be played at Alinma Stadium in King Abdullah Sports City, Jeddah. The committee's review covered match officials, team training schedules, approved training facilities, and other operational matters handled under the tournament's regulations.
Tickets and attendance
Reported ticket prices for the final start at SAR 30 for general-admission seats behind the goals, with prices varying by seating category. This keeps attendance accessible for families and fans across different budgets.
No government service or procedure — such as Absher, Muqeem, Qiwa, Najiz, Nafath, Tawakkalna, or any related fee — is required to attend the match. Entry is managed entirely through standard ticketing for the event.
For the community in Jeddah and across the Kingdom, the final offers a rare chance to watch two Gulf heavyweights meet on home soil. Residents and expats alike can plan ahead for a major night of regional football at one of the country's leading sporting venues.
