This Football World Cup 2022 first-ever transportable stadium, stadium 974 is made with 974 recycled shipping containers. After the tournament, the containers, the seats, and the tones of modular steel will be taken down so it can either be rebuilt in a different country as one big stadium or several other small ones.
The stadium's name also comes from its Qatar's international dialing code 974. It seats up to 40.000 fans and will host several world cup matches. The containers are spread out across the entire structure and will be used for things like concession stands changing rooms, restrooms, and more. one of the containers that have been transformed into a sky box.
it has its own restroom and the box has been completely renovated into a suit. The way the seats are set up allows the stadium to be naturally ventilated avoiding the need for air conditioning which all 7 of the other stadium will have. The entire stadium took about a year and a half to put together it's located right on the coast of Doha and a ride on the metro's Gold line will get to you as close to the gates as possible. after the world cup, the grounds will be turned into a waterfront development with restaurants and shops. Other international events have left behind a trail of abandoned venues will this design be a game changer for tournaments to come? Good luck Qatarr for hosting this event.
