Hassan II Stadium (Arabic: ملعب الحسن الثاني) is a planned football stadium to be built in Benslimane, just east of Casablanca. Once completed in 2028, it will be used mostly for football matches and will serve as the home of the Morocco national football team. The stadium is planned to have a capacity of 115,000 spectators, making it the largest football stadium in the world. It will also replace Stade Mohammed V as the home stadium of Morocco's largest clubs; Raja CA and Wydad AC.
The project was initially planned for Morocco's bid for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, alongside four other new stadiums, but the stadium was put on hold due to Morocco losing their bid to South Africa. It was also proposed for Morocco's bid for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, but Morocco would also lose to the United (Canada, Mexico and the United States) bid. Its construction was finally confirmed in October 2023 after the announcement of Morocco's hosting of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations and the 2030 FIFA World Cup with Spain and Portugal. The stadium is named after Hassan II of Morocco.
