The timeline ensures ample opportunity for test events and preparations, guaranteeing a world-class experience for all participants. While the World Cup is a focal point, the stadium is designed as a multi-purpose venue adaptable for various events, including gaming competitions, exhibitions, and cultural gatherings.”
