"Whether you live here or have travelled to Qatar from the other side of the world, there will be something for everyone to enjoy at the fan zone. As well as providing a host of fun activities for all visitors, we hope the fan zone gives people a taste of Qatar's inclusive and diverse culture, along with a glimpse of the remarkable FIFA World Cup that we will host in 2022."
Jean-François Pathy, FIFA's Director of Marketing Services, added: "We're delighted to have an energetic and welcoming place for fans to celebrate together away from the stadiums at this year's FIFA Club World Cup. The fan zone is an extension of the stadiums and its rich entertainment programme is sure to enhance the experience of both visiting and local fans."
