What Is the Capacity of Mataf?

The capacity of Mataf in the Grand Mosque is 107,000 pilgrims per hour, equivalent to over double its previous capacity which was limited to fifty thousand pilgrims.

The first phase of Mataf expansion project commenced in 2013. The expansion process included three phases over three years, concluding in 2015. The total constructed area comprising all the project's elements and components is estimated at 210,000 m.

Mataf comprises several floors featuring designated locations for wheelchairs dedicated to the elderly and persons with special needs. It was also supported with several gateways to facilitate entrance and exit and allow a large number of visitors and Umrah performers to access the Mataf courtyard and its facilities.
