With only 200 days until the start of the 22nd edition of international football’s showpiece event – and the first in the Middle East and Arab world – Eng. Yasir Al Jamal, Director General of the SC, said Qatar would welcome fans from all over the world to experience the country’s rich cultural heritage and hospitality.
From 21 November to 18 December, Qatar will host the most compact edition of the FIFA World Cup™ in modern history. All eight stadiums are within one hour’s drive of central Doha, meaning fans and players will always be in the thick of the action. And uniquely in modern times, fans will have the chance to attend more than one match a day in the early stages of the tournament.
Qatar 2022 will also set a new benchmark in terms of legacy. A host of dedicated sustainability projects – including social, economic and environmental – mean Qatar 2022 will positively impact lives across the Middle East, Arab world and globally for decades to come.
Eng. Yasir Al Jamal, Director General of the SC, said tournament organisers were busy fine-tuning their plans ahead of the big kick-off.
“We have learned so much from recent tournaments, including the FIFA Club World Cup and FIFA Arab Cup, which were successfully held in Qatar last year,” said Al Jamal.
“We will continue to collaborate closely with our national stakeholders to ensure our country hosts an unforgettable FIFA World Cup for both residents and the many visitors we are expecting. We are excited to welcome the world in November and December, and introduce everyone to our culture and hospitality.”
