Stadium 974’s involvement in the World Cup was significant although it hosted just seven matches.

In terms of material and financial longevity, being able to set up and dismantle a reusable stadium is quite attractive, minus the logistics and cost of transporting its parts long distances, which is a potential challenge. Qatar has supposedly spent under €9.5 billion ($10 million) on its World Cup stadiums, a fraction of the tournament’s overall cost but still not far off the entire amount Russia spent in 2018. Of course, it’s a fragment from the occasion—one where stadium-building has cost dollars and lives—but this sets a different blueprint. In years to come, fans and media personnel may recall their visits to 974, trying to remember whether it was a group stage game in the Middle East or one in another continent altogether. Its title, and the fact its structure is, at heart, an assembly of recycled shipping containers, is a start. The most innovative?
