The Supreme Committee, the body responsible for managing the 2022 World Cup projects, had its own stand at the exhibition centre. On display were scale models of all of the World Cup stadiums, where the 2022 World Cup games will be played – including the venues that have already been inaugurated: Al Khalifa International, Al Janoub, Education City and Ahmed Bin Ali stadium, along with the other venues whose construction is still in progress: Al Bayt, Al Thumama, Ras Abu Aboud and Lusail.

Committee executives are keen to in participate in trade shows both in Qatar and abroad, in order to showcase how preparations for 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar are being carried out, as well as to give updates on the progress achieved so far. It also gives the chance to inform the rest of the world about the projects that are still in process - especially regarding the eight World Cup stadiums, of which seven were built from scratch. The Al Khalifa International stadium was the only venue which was completely renovated to meet the standards set by international football’s governing body, FIFA.

The exhibition which has been on display at Milipol Qatar will help to strengthen Qatar's position as a pioneer in terms of national security and civil defense in the Middle East. It demonstrates that Qatar is dedicated to fulfilling all security needs, a position that fits in with its national vision of Qatar 2030, in addition to its role in providing the foremost regional needs.
