Lusail Stadium is Qatar’s largest and most iconic sports venue, located in Lusail City just north of Doha. With a seating capacity of nearly 89,000, it was the centerpiece of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, hosting ten matches including the final. The stadium’s design is inspired by the traditional Arabic fanar lantern, featuring a stunning golden façade adorned with intricate geometric patterns.
Built with sustainability in mind, Lusail Stadium incorporates solar-powered cooling systems to create a comfortable environment while minimizing its carbon footprint. Beyond football, the stadium continues to host major sporting events and concerts. Future plans aim to transform the stadium into a multi-purpose community hub with shops, cafés, athletic facilities, educational spaces, and health clinics, ensuring it remains a vibrant part of the community.
