The stadium, which will host matches A right through to the 2022 FIFA World Cup semi-finals, has started giving a look of bayt al sha’ar – tents historically used by nomadic peoples in Qatar and the Gulf region. Fans arriving at this 60,000-capacity arena will have never seen anything like it. The stadium design honours Qatar’s past and present, while keeping one eye on the future of the community. With the sustainability goals of the Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy firmly in mind, its creation will be a model of green development. Facilities for the community will spring up around it. As well as providing a first-class venue for the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar, this arena will become a shining example for future stadium construction.
