Context

Al-Hilal SFC is a Saudi Arabian professional multi-sports club based in Riyadh. Founded on 16 October 1957, it is one of three clubs to have competed in every season of the Saudi Pro League since its inception in 1976. Despite its remarkable growth and success, a distinctive audio identity was still missing. We made it happen.

Vision

To achieve this goal, Al-Hilal FC chose to tap into the power of their loyal fan base and their iconic chant, “Oh Ya Hilali.” This approach involved integrating the chant across multiple touchpoints within their sonic branding. From stadium anthems to notification sounds, we developed a cohesive and holistic sonic system.

Impact

Integrating the “Oh Ya Hilali” chant into Al-Hilal FC’s sonic branding delivered clear results: stronger brand recognition, deeper emotional connection with fans, heightened stadium engagement, and expanded reach across media channels, boosting visibility, loyalty, and overall excitement around the club.
