According to a statement from FIFA, “Following discussions between host country authorities and FIFA, a decision has been made to focus the sale of alcoholic beverages on the FIFA Fan Festival, other fan locations, and licenced venues, removing beer sales points from Qatar’s FIFA World Cup 2022 stadium perimeter.”
The Muslim nation is seen as being extremely conservative, and alcohol sales and consumption are strictly regulated.
