Lusail Stadium, designed by Foster + Partners, is a world-class football venue with a capacity for 80,000 fans. Its futuristic design draws inspiration from the fanar lantern's play of light and shadow. The shape and facade reflect intricate decorative motifs from the golden age of Arab and Islamic art. Innovative design elements, including high-performance facades and a sustainable roof, reduce energy consumption. The stadium's outdoor cooling technology also ensures maximum comfort. It has earned a five-star rating for sustainability under the Global Sustainability Assessment System.
