Description
Lusail Stadium is a modern, world-class football arena located in the city of Lusail, approximately 20 kilometers north of Doha. Owned by the Qatar Football Association, the stadium had a capacity of 88,966 spectators when it opened, making it the largest arena in the country and the entire Middle East, as well as one of the largest football venues in Asia.
Construction of Lusail Stadium began in April 2017 in preparation for the 2022 World Cup. The project was implemented by HBK Contracting and China Railway Construction Corporation. The stadium was officially opened on September 9, 2022, with the Lusail Super Cup match. The culmination of the stadium was the 2022 World Cup final between Argentina and France, which took place on December 18. In total, the arena has hosted ten World Cup matches, including the final.
The arena is equipped with modern engineering and environmental solutions. Lusail Stadium features a solar-powered cooling system and is billed as a low-carbon facility. In August 2022, the stadium received a five-star GSAS rating for its architectural and engineering performance.
After the World Cup, the stadium is planned to be transformed: its capacity will be reduced to 40,000 seats, and the vacated areas will be converted into public spaces, shops, cafes, sports and educational facilities. Lusail Stadium has already hosted the finals of the 2023 Asian Cup, the 2024 Intercontinental Cup, the 2025 Arab Nations Cup, and in 2026 it will become the arena for the Finalissima between the national teams of Spain and Argentina.
Today, Lusail Stadium remains one of the main venues for major sporting events in the region. On our website, you can purchase tickets for matches and other events taking place at this arena, with the possibility of choosing seats and a convenient purchase method.
