FIFA World Cup 2022 Facts

The 2022 World Cup takes place between November 21 and December 18, and in many ways, it will be the opposite.

  • The 2022 World Cup will be the last edition involving 32 countries. Next year that number will increase to 48 teams.
  • Qatar serves as the host country for the 2022 World Cup, which will be held in Qatar during the winter months to avoid the country’s extreme heat, although the World Cup is traditionally held in June and July.
  • As a result, it will be the first time the World Cup has been held in the Middle East.
  • Each host stadium is within a 35-mile radius of Doha, making it very accessible for spectators to travel to many sports.
