The 2022 World Cup is set to be played in Qatar, with the tournament scheduled to take place between November 21 and December 18.
Qatar were awarded the 2022 World Cup at the FIFA congress in Zurich on December 2, 2010. It will be the first time that the competition has been hosted in the Middle East.
The decision was made after a vote involving all eligible members of FIFA’s executive committee (ExCo).
There were originally five candidate countries – Australia, Japan, South Korea and United States as well as Qatar. However, Australia withdrew from the bidding process in September 2010 due to concerns over conditions for workers in Qatar.
The 2022 FIFA World Cup will be the 22nd FIFA World Cup, an international football tournament that is scheduled to take place in Qatar from 21 November to 18 December 2022. It is the first time ever that the tournament will be held in the Arab world, and the second time it is being held in Asia (after Japan and South Korea co-hosted in 2002). Qatar was selected as host nation in December 2010. It will be the first time that Qatar has hosted a major international football tournament since they were awarded the rights to do so by FIFA on 17 December 2010.
The bidding process for the 2022 FIFA World Cup began in January 2009 and ended on 2 December 2009 with FIFA’s Executive Committee voting for Qatar over all other bids. During this process, several players and officials within soccer, such as then-FIFA President Sepp Blatter, questioned whether Qatar could host a successful tournament due to its summer climate and small size.[5] However, on 1 March 2011, then-FIFA president Sepp Blatter said that he believed “the technical ability of Qatar” would allow them to host a successful World Cup.[6] On 13 March 2011 D
The 2022 World Cup is scheduled to be held in Qatar. The host nation won the right to hold the tournament in a bidding process that was disputed by allegations of corruption.
Qatar was chosen as host nation by FIFA on December 2, 2010. Their bid beat out Australia, Japan and South Korea.
The decision has been controversial from the start. Qatar is known for its sweltering summer heat and fierce sandstorms, which makes it difficult for football to be played outdoors during mid-summer (June and July). There are also concerns about how the country treats its migrant workers, who make up over 90% of Qatar’s population. These issues have led some critics to call for the tournament to be moved to winter or moved away from Qatar altogether.
Where is the FIFA World Cup 2022 schedule?
The 2022 World Cup will be held in Qatar. It is scheduled to take place from 21 November to 18 December 2022.
The tournament will be the 22nd FIFA World Cup and the 17th since it was re-organized as a tournament for the 20th anniversary of its foundation.
FIFA decided to award the 2022 FIFA World Cup to Qatar on 2 December 2010, at a FIFA executive meeting held in Zurich, Switzerland. The selection process was controversial, with allegations of bribery and corruption being made against several members of the executive committee before and during voting.
The bidding had been marred by allegations of bribery and corruption, as well as criticism from domestic media that it would be too hot for players, fans and officials in summer temperatures expected to reach 50°C (122°F). The bid team refuted all charges, arguing that hosting the World Cup would help promote Qatar’s position on the world stage and generate long-term economic benefits for the country.[1][2]
Qatar’s bid included a commitment from FIFA to move the timing of the 2022 World Cup from June–July to November–December because of concerns about player safety due to extreme heat

The 2022 FIFA World Cup will be held in November/December as usual. However, unlike previous years, there will not be any winter break during the tournament. This means that teams will play their matches across four different time zones and this may prove difficult for players who are used to playing in one time zone only (e.g. Europe).
What cities will the World Cup be in 2022?
FIFA has announced the host cities for the 2022 World Cup.

Why is the World Cup 2022 in November?
So why is the World Cup 2022 in November? Well, it’s not just because Qatar likes to have its football tournament in winter, or because they wanted to bring it closer to Christmas. The real reason is that they wanted to move it away from the summer heat.
Qatar is very hot in June and July, with temperatures reaching as high as 50 degrees Celsius (90 degrees Fahrenheit). But in November, they’re down to around 25 degrees Celsius (77 degrees Fahrenheit). What’s more, November isn’t too bad for travelling either.
The 2022 World Cup will be held between 21 November and 18 December 2022.
Why has it been moved?
It was always going to be hard for FIFA to keep staging the World Cup in summer months when so many European teams were struggling to find players who could play at home at their peak fitness levels during those months. It was particularly problematic for teams from northern Europe who had very little chance of getting through the group stage without having their games played in cooler weather conditions or during a different time of year altogether.
There were also concerns about whether or not fans would be able to get tickets if games were played in countries where temperatures are too high and also about whether or not there would be enough hotel rooms available
The 2022 World Cup will be the first to be played in November and December, FIFA have confirmed.
The tournament is scheduled to begin on November 21 and end on December 18, with the final taking place on December 18 at the King Fahd Stadium in Riyadh.
FIFA president Gianni Infantino said he had made the decision after consulting with national leagues and clubs around the world. He also said it would help avoid a clash with Ramadan, which comes towards the end of October.
“I am sure that this solution is good for all,” he said. “It is good for football.”
The decision was applauded by European clubs’ association ECA, who said they were “happy” with how things had turned out.
“We are happy that FIFA has taken our concerns into account and we are convinced that this new calendar will give everyone enough time to prepare for an extraordinary event like the World Cup,” chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said in a statement on Tuesday.

Will World Cup 2022 happen in Qatar?
Will World Cup 2022 happen in Qatar?
The 2022 World Cup is scheduled to take place in Qatar, but the country could be stripped of the hosting rights.
The country has been plagued by allegations of corruption and human rights abuses. FIFA recently launched an investigation into the bidding process that awarded the 2022 World Cup to Qatar.
In a statement, FIFA said it had “noted media reports regarding alleged irregularities concerning the awarding of the 2022 FIFA World Cup to Qatar.”
FIFA President Gianni Infantino has indicated that he is not opposed to moving the 2022 tournament if necessary.
“If there are allegations of wrongdoing, we must investigate,” Infantino told Swiss newspaper Blick on January 19th. “This can be done by FIFA or by external legal experts hired by FIFA.”
Will the World Cup 2022 be in the winter?
FIFA will decide on whether to switch the 2022 World Cup from the summer to winter in October.
The decision will be made at the organisation’s annual congress in Paris and is expected to be ratified by Fifa’s executive committee.
It follows a report by Fifa’s medical panel that concluded it would be “more favourable” for players, spectators and television viewers if the tournament was played in November and December 2022.
Fifa president Gianni Infantino has said he wants to make the World Cup “the biggest event in the world”.
Will it happen?
Yes, it’s now almost certain that the 2022 World Cup will take place during the winter months. The decision has been backed by all of Europe’s major football leagues and clubs, who stand to lose millions of pounds if their stars are away for more than six weeks.
However, this doesn’t mean we’ll have an April-May tournament next time around. In fact, FIFA has already been working on a plan B for some time – moving it to January/February 2023 should any legal challenges arise as a result of moving the tournament from one season into another
FIFA has confirmed that it will decide in June whether or not to move the 2022 World Cup in Qatar to the winter.
The decision will be made by the executive committee at its meeting in Zurich on 10-11 June.
FIFA president Sepp Blatter said: “We are asking for means to be given to us so that we can find out what would be the best solution for football.”
The decision will be made by the executive committee, which has since been enlarged from 24 members to 27.
The usual date for a World Cup is June and July but temperatures in Qatar during this time are often over 40C (104F).
If FIFA decides on a winter event, then it would likely take place from 21 November until 18 December 2022.
Where will the 2026 World Cup start?
FIFA has announced that 2026 World Cup will start with a match between the host, the United States and Mexico.
The decision to hold an opening ceremony at the new National Football Stadium in Los Angeles has been made.
FIFA president Gianni Infantino said: “The US has proposed to host with Canada and Mexico, and we are happy to accept this proposal.”
The World Cup 2022 opening match was held in Qatar’s capital Doha.
It is expected that the United States will be the most likely venue for the final of 2026.
The 2026 World Cup will start in the US.
The US is the only country to submit a bid to host the tournament, which will be expanded from 32 teams to 48.
The other three host countries are expected to be announced in 2020.
The 2026 World Cup will be played across Canada, Mexico and the US – with 60 games taking place in each nation.
The tournament will take place between 14 June and 15 July, with the final set for 8 July at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, where 68,000 fans watched France beat Croatia 4-2 in the 2018 final.
The 2026 World Cup will start with a game between the host United States and Mexico.
The other two games of the Group A doubleheader on June 16 will be played in San Francisco and Los Angeles.
The United States, Mexico, Costa Rica and Jamaica are the only CONCACAF countries that have qualified for this summer’s tournament in Russia.
The U.S. is in Group D along with World Cup champion France, Australia and Peru.
Mexico plays its first match against defending champion Germany on June 17 at Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium.
Although the United States is expected to be one of three host nations, the exact location of the opening match has yet to be decided.
The United States is expected to host 60 games at 10 different venues across the country. The other two host countries, Mexico and Canada, will each host 10 games at three stadiums each. The United States will host every team except for Saudi Arabia in its opening round of matches.
The first game will take place on June 14 at an undetermined venue.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup is still years away, but there’s already a lot of buzz about it in North America. The United States, Canada and Mexico are set to co-host the event next year after they were chosen over Morocco by FIFA members on Wednesday afternoon during their annual meeting in Moscow.
