Two of the latest stadiums to be announced were 974 and Al Bayt…

Ten of the eight venues for the 2022 World Cup have already been announced by the hosts Qatar, less than a year away from the global spectacle.

Stadium 974 was inaugurated a few weeks back, and Al Bayt became the latest venue to receive an official opening on Tuesday during the opening of the FIFA Arab Cup.

The 60,000-seat Al Bayt stadium hosted Qatar’s 1-0 win over Bahrain. The venue was designed to resemble the tents historically used by nomadic people in the Gulf. Just under a year from now, the stadium will host Qatar 2022’s opening match.

Heikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al Thani, Amir of Qatar, attended the inauguration of Al Bayt and announced the start of the tournament.

Before the Amir Cup 2019 final, in which Al Duhail won the title beating Al Sadd 4-1, the Al-Janoub Stadium opened in Al-Wakrah, Qatar.

Zaha Hadid, a British-Iraqi architect, designed the stadium. Pearl divers from the area traditionally used Dhow boats for pearl diving. The architecture of the building is inspired by these boats. Adding to the sense of being on a ship, the curvilinear roof and exterior evoke Al Wakrah’s history of seafaring. As if a ship’s hull were holding up the roof, curved beams support it.

Date Launched: May 16, 2019

Education City Stadium

The Education City Stadium, which can accommodate 40,000 spectators, was opened with a digital ceremony in Al Rayyan, Qatar, by Qatar Foundation. Green materials make up 20 percent of the stadium’s construction, making it one of the greenest stadiums in the world. The company even received a 5-star rating from the Global Sustainability Assessment System (GSAS) in May 2019.

Date Launched: June 15, 2020
