Ticket sales for the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar are approaching 3 million as the countdown continues to the first edition of the tournament in the Middle East and Arab world, which kicks off at Al Bayt Stadium on 20 November.

During a press conference in Doha, organisers announced that an additional 30,000 rooms have been made available to World Cup visitors as Qatar prepares to host 64 matches in eight state-of-the-art stadiums. The widest range of accommodation is available from the Qatar Accommodation Agency. Rooms can be booked from $80 per person, per night, on a double occupancy basis. Accommodation options include hotels, flats and fan villas.

"We have always said that Qatar will deliver the best edition of the FIFA World Cup. And as we look around the country today, at the state-of-the-art stadiums, the training grounds, the metro, the wider infrastructure, everything is ready and everyone is welcome," FIFA president Gianni Infantino said during a video message. "The world is excited. Qatar is ready. The stage is set. Together, we will deliver the best World Cup on and off the field."
