When and where is the World Cup opening ceremony?

The opening ceremony for the World Cup will take place before the first match of the tournament, which sees hosts Qatar take on Ecuador at Al Bayt Stadium in Al Khor. The venue holds 60,000 people and is one of the grounds built specifically for the World Cup.

The game had previously been scheduled for November 21 but was eventually brought forward to allow the hosts to open the tournament.

A FIFA statement read: “The change ensures the continuity of a long-standing tradition of marking the start of the FIFA World Cup with an opening ceremony on the occasion of the first match featuring either the hosts or the defending champions.
