Stadium 974 (Arabic: استاد ٩٧٤, romanized: ʾIstād 974, previously known as Ras Abu Aboud Stadium) is a football stadium in Ras Abu Aboud, Doha, Qatar, about 10km east of Doha. Officially opened on 30 November 2021, Stadium 974 was the first planned temporary venue in FIFA World Cup history.
The stadium hosted test matches during the 2021 FIFA Arab Cup and was a landmark venue during the 2022 FIFA World Cup. The legacy plans involved dismantling the stadium and moving it to Africa or South America, and the former site to be transformed with a waterfront development. However as of February 2025, this has not happened and the stadium currently still sits in its original site. Most recently, the venue was used for the 2024 FIFA Intercontinental Cup and the 2024 Trophée des Champions.
