The World Cup concept is characterized by its extremely innovative, compact configuration of competition and training venues, team base camps, fan hotels and FIFA headquarters and accommodation. The designs of the stadiums are based on influential Qatari motives and herewith symbolize the diversity of the country. All FIFA requirements for World Cup stadiums have been fulfilled in an optimal manner.

All stadiums are easily accessible via public personal transportation and are connected to the highly-efficient road network.
