The organizing committee for the Arabian Gulf Football Championship "Gulf 27" unveiled the official mascot for the tournament, named "Dheeban." The event is scheduled to take place in Jeddah from September 23 to October 6, 2026. The name was inspired by the Arabian wolf, a threatened species, which symbolizes bravery, intelligence, and strength. It also represents the values of generosity and hospitality within Saudi society and the relationships among the Gulf countries. The mascot was designed to be a companion for fans and a welcoming face for the tournament, appearing in stadiums and events to enhance engagement and to embody the tournament's significance in the memories of football fans across the region.
