The FIFA Arab Cup Qatar 2025 Local Organising Committee (LOC) unveiled Juha as the official mascot for the prestigious Arab competition taking place from December 1 to 18 in Qatar.  

Inspired by arguably the most popular character from the history of Arab literature, Juha embodies the rich folkloric traditions of the region.

Often depicted as a clumsy, slow-witted man who finds himself in humorous situations through his strange antics, Juha’s tales, wildly popular across generations in the Arab world, always end in a revelation of profound wisdom.

The beloved folklore hero will come to life, joining in the festivities of the FIFA Arab Cup, which will once again unite Arab fans for a unique celebration of the region’s vibrant culture and shared passion for football.

A total of 16 teams will have a chance to lift the coveted FIFA Arab Cup Qatar 2025 trophy. Nine of the highest FIFA-ranked teams have qualified automatically, while 14 teams will vie for the remaining 7 spots in a series of qualifiers. The qualifying matches will be held on November 25 and 26 in Qatar, ahead of the tournament.

FIFA Arab Cup Qatar 2025 tickets are available at: www.roadtoqatar.qa, with prices starting from QAR25. Supporters can also purchase a Follow My Team ticket, which will enable them to attend all matches of their team of choice during the group stage. Throughout the competition, fans will also be treated to a variety of entertainment and cultural activities. 

All tickets will be digital and will include accessible seating options for disabled fans. Disabled fans wishing to request accessible seats can do so by sending an e-mail to accessibility.tickets@sc.qa.

The opening match will take place on December 1, at Al Bayt Stadium, featuring hosts Qatar and the winner of Palestine vs Libya. The Final will be held on December 18 at the iconic Lusail Stadium.
