The Stadium is located 12km south of Doha's glittering skyline, Al Thumama Stadium will host FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ matches up to and including the quarter-finals.

Al Thumama Stadium is dynamic, empowering and truly imaginative. In keeping with all of Qatar’s new FIFA World Cup 2022™ venues, this arena has been designed to celebrate Arab culture and traditions, just as much as the tournament itself.

The stadium’s bold, circular form reflects the gahfiya – a traditional woven cap adorned by men and boys all across the Middle East for centuries. It is a beloved part of Arab family culture that symbolises dignity and independence – marking every young boy's path to adulthood.

In symbolising Qatar's youth, Al Thumama Stadium also points to the country's emergence as a major player on the global sporting scene.
