The Minister of Sports of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki Al-Faisal, answered questions about alcohol at the 2034 FIFA World Cup.
— The law in Saudi Arabia prohibits alcohol. Will this change in the future? We don’t know. But I don’t think it affects our sporting events at all. We have already held over 100 international competitions. People from all over the world have come to us — and everyone was satisfied with the hospitality and the experiences received. Honestly, I don’t consider it a problem. And I hope it won’t become a problem, — quotes the prince Reuters.
It should be noted that in Qatar, alcohol was not sold at stadiums during the World Cup, as drinking in public places is illegal, but beer was allowed in special fan zones and some hotels.
