The Jeddah Superdome (JSD; Arabic: جدة سوبر دوم|Jidda Sūbar Dūm) is a 40,000 seat multi-purpose event space located on Madinah Road, west of King Abdullah Sports City, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Since its opening in June 2021, it hosts all local and international exhibitions, conferences, and events in the city.[1] [2]

With a diameter of 210m (690feet), height of 46m (151feet), and covered area of 34636m2, the JSD broke two building structure records: it is now the largest continuous (non-segmented, non-openable) dome,[3] a record previously held by the Caesars Superdome,[4] and the world’s largest geodesic dome.[5]
