Qatar - The Amir Cup 2023 final, in the 51st edition of the tournament, will be held at the Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium on May 12.

The final match will see the winners of Al Sadd against Al Shahaniya on April 24 and Al Sailiya against Al Arabi on April 25.

This will be the second time for Ahamd bin Ali Stadium - one of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 stadiums - to host the final match of the Amir Cup as the stadium previously held the final of the 48th edition on December 18, 2022, when Al Sadd won the title over Al Arabi. On that day, the national day of Qatar, the stadium was inaugurated to officially be the fourth world cup stadium.

During the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium hosted seven matches, including the Argentina-Australia match in the round of 16, with a capacity of 45,032 fans.

The first World Cup match that was hosted at the venue was between USA and Wales in the opening round of Group B. It also hosted matches between Belgium and Canada, Wales and Iran, Japan and Costa Rica, Wales and England, and Croatia and Belgium.

The stadium, located in the Umm Al Afai area, which is one of the oldest Qatari settlements and home to Al Rayyan Sports Club, is inspired by nature and is a man-made marvel. The design of the stadium and the surrounding buildings simulates local culture and traditions, while the exterior facade reflects the ripples of sand dunes. The geometric shapes depict the beauty of the desert, local flora and fauna, as well as local and international trade.

The stadium is set to be the perfect home for Al Rayyan Club, following the end of the FIFA World Cup.

More than 80% of the building materials used for the stadium were from the original stadium that previously occupied the site, while the trees around the old stadium were carefully preserved.

Fans visiting the stadium can travel through Doha’s new environmentally friendly metro system, making it a truly sustainable experience.
