Phase 2, launched after those in Agadir and Marrakech, provides for the removal of the running track, a football-only bowl, a new roof and a building on the west side, for 55,800 seats in 2028.
The stadium is about 10 km from the centre: a petit taxi costs 60 to 100 dirhams (25 minutes), 100 to 150 dirhams from Fès-Saïss airport. 7,500 parking spaces. A first bus rapid transit line is in preparation.

Reopened on 14 November 2025 after two years of work, the Ibn Batouta stadium holds 75,600 — the largest in Morocco until Benslimane opens.
