Where is Grand Hamad Stadium in Doha?
Grand Hamad Stadium is on Al-Muntazah Street in the New Slata area of Doha. Its other common names—Al-Arabi Sports Club Stadium, Al-Arabi SC Stadium and Al-Arabi Stadium—can help you recognise it in directions.
Two published capacity figures differ: one stadium listing gives 13,000, while a list of football stadiums in Qatar gives 12,000. The stadium listing also describes its playing surface as grass. Treat capacity as a reference rather than a guarantee about the setup for a particular event.
What should you know about match and event access?
Event access details can depend on the match or event, so check the official site before you go. Confirm the venue name and address against your ticket or event information, particularly when a listing uses one of the stadium’s alternative names.
Published capacity figures don’t establish the seating arrangement, available entrances or access rules for a specific event. Follow the instructions issued for your ticket rather than assuming that general stadium details apply to every match.
