Lusail Stadium
Capacity: 80,000 Location: Lusail City, 20km north of central Doha
Lusail Stadium will host the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Final – an event that will secure its place in football and architectural history. Immense yet exquisite, the scale and splendour of this arena are a wonder, built to lie in harmony with its surroundings.
The design reflects the hand-crafted bowls found all across the Arab and Islamic world during the rise of civilisation, while interplays of light mirror the fanar lanterns of the region. With the passing of time, the golden exterior will fade replicating aged metal handicrafts to create a venue alive with cultural character.
On December 18 2022, 80,000 fans will come together here for the World Cup Final. Afterwards, and in keeping with Qatar’s dedication to sustainable development, Lusail Stadium will be transformed into a community space of schools, shops, cafes, sporting facilities and health clinics.
