Stadium 974 by Fenwick
Considered as one of the most innovative stadium designs of all 8 structures, Stadium 974, previously known as Ras Abou Aboud, is inspired by Qatar’s international trade and seafaring. The number "974" is highly significant for the project as well, as it is the international dialing code for Qatar, as well as the number of shipping containers used in its construction.
The structure is located on the shore across Doha's West Bay skyline. Since it's mainly made of shipping containers, the 40,000-capacity stadium will be entirely demounted upon completion of the World Cup, and used as a waterfront development for the local community. The stadium was inaugurated on 20 November 2021, via a digital launch.
