2022 FIFA WORLD CUP TOUR - Dubai & QatarOn the back of an incredible intercontinental play-off against Peru, Australia has qualified for a fifth straight FIFA World Cup! The Socceroos have been drawn into Group D, along with reigning FIFA World Cup Champions France, Denmark & Tunisia.
Socceroos Group Stage Schedule France vs. Australia, 22 November Tunisia vs. Australia, 26 November Australia vs. Denmark, 30 November All three Socceroos Group Stage matches will be held at Al Janoub Stadium in Al-Wakrah, about 17km from Doha. Our 2022 FIFA World Cup Tour We have partnered with our friends at Premium Sport Tours for this World Cup Tour. We will be based in Dubai UAE, and will fly in/fly out of Doha for the three Australia Group Stage Matches. Transfers to and from the airport and stadium is included each day. This is a fully escorted tour, with an experienced Premium Sport Tours manager, tour host and local guide. We have decided to base ourselves in Dubai as Qatar offers very limited and expensive accommodation options, limited options to enjoy the World Cup atmosphere and not much to see or do. Dubai is a tourist city with lot's to see and do, plus plenty of bars and restaurants to watch all the other football matches. Match Tickets are not included in the tour cost and must be purchased individually from www.fifa.com/tickets. The final sales phase begins at 7:00pm on Tuesday 5 July and concludes 16 August 2022. During this sales period, tickets will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. SPECIAL GUEST
