One of the biggest sporting events in the world, the 2022 World Cup, will take place in Qatar. For the first time ever, the Middle East will host football’s premier festival, and Qatar is making every effort to give players and spectators an unforgettable experience. Eight upscale stadiums with top-notch amenities will host the World Cup.
The Lusail Stadium will soon be opened by Qatar, which has already opened seven stadiums. In actuality, Qatar’s biggest stadium will be the last one to be unveiled. Only the official unveiling was still pending after the construction at the venue was finished well in advance.
On September 9, 2022, the Lusail Stadium will be officially opened. A Lusail Super Cup game that has been specially organized will take place at the stadium’s official opening. The winners of the Egyptian Premier League and the Saudi Pro League will compete in the match. A musical concert, organized by a well-known singer whose identity will be revealed in due course, will take place after the game.
The 2022 World Cup final will take place on December 18, 2022, at Lusail Stadium. It’s interesting to note that the stadium will host games throughout the entire World Cup. On November 22, 2022, Saudi Arabia and Argentina will square off in a Group C match at the new Lusail Stadium. During the World Cup, the stadium will host a total of 10 games.
Lusail Stadium is the biggest 2022 World Cup venue with a capacity of 80000. The stadium is located in Lusail City, about 15 km north of Doha.
Qatar FIFA World Cup stadiums set to be alcohol-free; beer sales to be allowed outside arenas only
Qatar’s World Cup stadiums will be alcohol-free, with beer sales outside arenas only permitted before and after specific matches. This year’s World Cup will be the first to be held in a Muslim country with strict alcohol controls, posing unique challenges for organizers of an event frequently associated with beer-drinking fans and sponsored by global brewing brands.
A document obtained by ESPN provides the first glimpse into how organizers intend to handle the demands of an estimated 1.2 million fans, many of whom are accustomed to drinking beer without limits on match days. Football’s relationship with alcohol has long been complicated, and in the run-up to the 2014 World Cup, Brazil lifted a ban on alcohol in stadiums after pressure from FIFA.
Since the Gulf Arab state won the hosting rights in 2010, there has been a question mark over alcohol at this year’s tournament. While Qatar is not a ‘dry’ state like neighbouring Saudi Arabia, drinking alcohol in public is prohibited. However, during the World Cup in November, fans can purchase beer in certain areas of the main FIFA fan zone in the Al Bidda Park in Doha, Qatar’s capital.
