Khalifa International Stadium or also known as National Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Doha, Qatar. Prior to the 2006 Asian Games, it was used mostly for football matches, but it includes facilities for many other sports. The stadium has a capacity of 50,000. Khalifa stadium was the main venue for the Doha 2006 Asian Games, and is part of the Doha Sports City complex, which also includes Aspire Academy, Hamad Aquatic Centre, and the Aspire Tower. Full renovation of the stadium was completed in 2005. It is currently the stadium of Qatar national football team. The stadium was originally opened in 1976, but was fully renovated and expanded prior to the Asian Games in order to increase its capacity from 20,000 to 50,000. A roof has also been built on the Western side of the stadium, along with a large arch on the Eastern side which was used as a platform for the launch of fireworks during the 2006 Asian Games opening ceremony.
