Indications emerged on Sunday September 4, 2022, that Qatar will permit ticketed fans to buy alcoholic beer at World Cup soccer matches starting three hours before kickoff and for one hour after the final whistle, but not during the match, a source with knowledge of plans for the tournament said.

Budweiser, a major World Cup sponsor with exclusive rights to sell beer at the tournament, will serve beer within the ticketed perimeter surrounding each stadium, but not in the stadium stands or concourse, the source said.

This year’s World Cup is the first to be held in a Muslim country with strict controls on alcohol, presenting unique challenges for organisers of an event sponsored by a major beer brand and often associated with beer-drinking fans.

“Beer will be available when gates open, which is three hours before kick off. Whoever wants to have a beer will be able to. And then when they leave the stadium as well for one hour after the final whistle,” the source said.

Up to 32 have already qualified for the mundial scheduled between November and December this year.

The teams are drawn from Africa, Asia, Europe, North/Central America & Caribbean (CONCACAF), Oceania (OFC), South America (CONMEBOL).

Eight stadiums will host the event across five cities in Qatar – Lusall, Al Khor, Al Rayyan, Al Wakrah and Doha.
