The Al Bayt Stadium is peculiar because of its large tent construction covering the whole stadium. Its name originates from the local tents used by the indigenous Qatari people. The stadium can host about 60,000 people.

The stadium's architecture showcases Qatar's history and present time. It is also a clear example of how sustainable development is inculcated in architecture. After the competition, the stadium's upper part will be disassembled, and the removed seats will be given to other nations as a donation.

Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium

The Al-Rayyan Stadium will be stretched to accommodate 40,000 spectators in preparation for the World Cup. The stadium is specifically designed to reflect Qatari culture. After the competition, it will be reduced to about 20,000 seats, and the removed seats will be donated to international football development initiatives.

Al Janoub Stadium

The Al Janoub Stadium is a 40,000-seat stadium forming part of a larger sports complex that also comprises equestrian and bicycle paths, stores, restaurants, and sports clubs.

The stadium's capacity will be lowered to 20,000 seats after the FIFA World Cup, ensuring an electrifying atmosphere for their Qatar Stars League games.

Khalifa International Stadium

Initially constructed in 1976, the rebuilt Khalifa International Stadium was refurbished and enlarged in 2005 to serve as the focal point of the 2006 Asian Games, which Qatar hosted.

The 3-2-1 Qatar Olympic and Sports Museum are connected to the stadium by a walkway. This adds to understanding how this location values its past while preparing for a vibrant future.
