Let's start with the most important venue when it comes to the Socceroos, the 40,000 seat Al Janoub Stadium. Located half an hour south of central Doha, the stadium was designed by the firm of the late Iraqi-British architect Dame Zaha Hadid, whose designs range from the Guangzhou Opera House in China to the Bergisel Ski Jump in Innsbruck, Austria....
It's appropriate that Al Bayt is a tribute to the tents of the nomadic people of Qatar, because it's the only venue that requires a good old trek across the desert to get to. And by trek we don't mean an arduous journey from one side of the country to the other — it's literally only 40km north of Doha on an uninterrupted highway — but given most of...
The Khalifa International Stadium is the national stadium of Qatar — and has played host to national team games as well as athletics events since the '70s. It holds 45,000 fans after its World Cup redevelopment. The Socceroos won't play here at this World Cup, which is a shame because they've already been here four times and considered it a home-aw...
This unique venue can be found right on the seafront in the Ras Abu Aboud area, about 10km east of downtown Doha. The 40,000-capacity venue is something of a history maker in that it is a full demountable — the first such stadium to be used in a World Cup — which means the tiny gulf state will have one less potential white elephant to deal with aft...

As the biggest stadium in the country, holding 80,000 when full, it will host the biggest game of all, the final on December 19. The design of the stadium is to reflect a hand-crafted bowl, with the golden facade boasting an int...
If you couldn't figure it out from the name, Education City Stadium sits in the guts of — you guessed it — Education City, an area in the west of Doha dedicated to a bunch of universities and research centres. Holding a capacity crowd of 40,000, the venue's engineering design firm was Buro Happold, a company founded by Sir Edmund Happold, who worke...
Let's talk about the end bit first to get it out of the way — yes, this stadium will drop from 44,000 seats to about 20,000 seats after the World Cup like a lot of its mates. No, we don't know where all these lonely seats are going to end up other than anywhere but Qatar. So if anyone's in the market for 200,000+ stadium seats in the near future, j...
It feels weird to describe a giant inanimate piece of steel in the desert as "pretty", but we'll be damned if this stadium isn't one of the prettiest in the world. Inspired by the gahfiya skullcap worn by men and boys across the Middle East, the venue has a lace-like exterior and is built in a perfect circle to mimic the traditional headwear. Holdi...
