Stadium 974 is one of the 8 World Cup hosts in Qatar which will start on the 20th of this month.
The 974 stadium was miraculously built as it operates about
974 containers, built on an area of 450,000 square meters. The stadium was
built around 2017 and November 2021 and can receive 40,000 people sitting well.
Builder Fenwick Iribarren was the one who provided a
blueprint for this stadium that is expected to host about 7 games in the World
Cup.
The reason for building this stadium in containers
As the construction of stadiums that would receive the world
cup games were taking place they imported many things through containers, the
containers became many in the city of Doha so they started asking themselves what
to do with them
Fenwick came up with
an idea that they can build a stadium using these Containers and other closed
devices so that by the end of the World Cup games it would be easily demolished
Without hesitation, Fenwick immediately put out a master
plan outside and the builders started building this stadium. The one who was in
charge of the construction of the stadium said it was one of the most modern
buildings and used a 40% water level compared to the water they would use when
built in the form of conventional cement. The 974 Stadium hosted the first
international game on November 30, 2021, when the Arab League met Syria in the
Arab Cup.
It is expected that it will be demolished after the World
Cup Games and some of its components will be transported to the Maldonado
Stadium in Uruguay if the country will be allowed to host the 2030 World Cup.
