Lusail Stadium

The local organizing committee for the FIFA Intercontinental Cup Qatar 2024 has announced a packed program of cultural and entertainment events in the fan zone surrounding Lusail Stadium, which will host the final between Real Madrid of Spain and Pachuca of Mexico, the North American champions, on Wednesday.

The fan zone at Lusail Stadium will include exciting artistic performances and various interactive activities, targeting fans of all ages before the match kicks off at 8 pm, in addition to a food and restaurant area.

There will also be special activities to mark the two-year anniversary of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 final. Two years ago to the day, the iconic Lusail Stadium hosted a historic final between Argentina and France. Since then, the 89,000-seater has also hosted the final match of the AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023.

This match comes to close the curtain on a prestigious tournament that witnessed the continental club champions competing for the title of the best club in the world.

The Real Madrid squad will boast several world-class players, including FIFA World Cup winner Kylian Mbappe who will be returning to the iconic Lusail Stadium after narrowly missing out on a second title in Qatar 2022 to Argentina. The Spanish side will also include other marquee names including Brazilian Vinicius Jr. and English star Jude Bellingham.

The Mexican side will look to make it three trophies in a row after claiming both the FIFA Derby of the Americas Qatar 2024 and the FIFA Challenger Cup Qatar 2024, with wins earlier in the week over Botafogo and Al Ahly respectively.
