Education City Stadium

Doha, Qatar

Education City Stadium was built with the intention of serving as a hub for sport and recreation following the 2022 World Cup. When the building operator, the Qatar Foundation, decided to focus the venue’s legacy efforts on women’s sports, Canopy Team was asked to develop the program of uses.

Combining traditional sport and adjacent uses, we helped develop a program to allow Education City Stadium to serve both elite and non-elite female athletes of all ages in Doha and the surrounding region. The result is the design of a safe destination for women and girls to gather, engage in community, and participate in sport when they feel compelled to do so.

Spaces programmed at the stadium include sports medicine facilities, performance-science laboratories, agility training spaces, spin, yoga, and pilates studios, multi-purpose sport courts, a competition-sized 200m track, and dedicated spaces for women-owned retail outlets and local farm-to-table food vendors.
