The four separate tiers are completely equipped with different colored plastic seats (red, green and blue). The sports facility is illuminated by a floodlight system on four masts in the open stadium corners. A display board sits enthroned on the back gate in the north . In addition to the natural turf playing field in the stadium, the facility has a training field with artificial turf .

In 2013, matches of the U-22 Asian football championship took place in the Al Seeb Stadium. It was one of three venues for the 2017 CISM World Football Trophy .
