FIFA 2022 – What Should You Know?
Although Qatar has strict social taboos around alcohol, the host nation will serve beer in the football stadiums. However, fans can only take the non-alcoholic beer to their seats. Lusail Stadium, the venue for the FIFA World Cup 2022 final, will host the tournament's first match.
Impact of Fifa World Cup 2022 on Qatar
Qatar is expected to add approximately USD 17 billion to its economy from the FIFA World Cup 2022. As a result, the host nation will be in the global spotlight for an entire month. However, the benefits might get skewed despite the increase in economic activity, considering that Qatar is a tax haven.
Further, Australia, one of the major exporters to Qatar for food and engineering services, will benefit directly from Qatar hosting FIFA 2022. The world cup hosting countries have historically noted an increase in GDP. But that’s not long-lasting. Undoubtedly, the clear winner of the FIFA World Cup is FIFA itself.
