The FIFA World Cup 2022™ Official Hospitality Programme included guaranteed match tickets and a range of other benefits based on the hospitality product chosen. The programme welcomed people from over 140 countries – who all brought their passion for football and excitement for the tournament to Qatar, making for a historic event.

Over 2 million tickets were sold for the most eagerly anticipated tournament in international football. Individual match tickets, in particular those for the opening match and final, were the most sought-after, while fans also snapped up Team Specific Ticket Series and Four-Stadium Ticket Series. The random selection draw sales and first come, first served periods gave fans another chance to secure tickets.

Qatar, the smallest country to have hosted FIFA’s flagship event, prepared itself to welcome over 1 million visitors during the World Cup. A partnership with Qatar Airways and an early bird programme allowed supporters to book flights over 16 months prior to travel. The accommodation provision for fans included more than 130,000 rooms in 2-5star hotels, cruise ships, desert fan villages, apartments and villas.
