The King Abdullah Sports City, also known as the Jewel Stadium, was announced as the venue of the final on 14 May 2022.{{cite web |title=الجوهرة يشهد النهائي السادس لكأس الملك |url=https://www.alwatan.com.sa/article/1106733}} This was the sixth time the King Abdullah Sports City hosted the final following those in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 and was the fourteenth time it was hosted in Jeddah.

The King Abdullah Sports City was built in 2012, and opened in 2014 as the home of Al-Ahli, Al-Ittihad and the Saudi Arabia national team. Its current capacity is 62,345, and the record attendance was the opening match which was the 2014 King Cup final. The final also hosted many other finals including the 2019 Saudi Super Cup, the 2018 Supercoppa Italiana and the 2019–20 Supercopa de España.

Background

Al-Fayha reached their first final after a 1–0 home win against Al-Ittihad.{{cite web |title=الفيحاء يقصي اتحاد جدة ويتأهل إلى نهائي كأس الملك |url=https://www.alhadath.net/2022/04/05/%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%81%D9%8A%D8%AD%D8%A7%D8%A1-%D9%8A%D9%82%D8%B5%D9%8A-%D8%A7%D8%AA%D8%AD%D8%A7%D8%AF-%D8%AC%D8%AF%D8%A9-%D9%88%D9%8A%D8%AA%D8%A3%D9%87%D9%84-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%89-%D9%86%D9%87%D8%A7%D8%A6%D9%8A-%D9%83%D8%A3%D8%B3-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D9%84%D9%83}} Al-Fayha became the eleventh side to feature in a King Cup final.{{cite web |title=النهائي الأول.. 10 اختبارات.. والناجح 3 |url=https://arriyadiyah.com/768328}}

Al-Hilal reached their 17th final after a 2–1 win against derby rivals Al-Shabab.{{cite web |title=الهلال يقلب الطاولة على الشباب بثنائية.. ويتأهل إلى نهائي كأس الملك |url=https://akhbaar24.argaam.com/article/detail/595497}} This was Al-Hilal's second final in three years, and fifth final since the tournament was reintroduced.
