The Venue: Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium

Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium in Al Tiwayya, Al Ain, is the home of Al Ain FC and the club’s own ground, built for football rather than as a multi-purpose arena.

Al Ain is in the Abu Dhabi emirate, inland from both Abu Dhabi city and Dubai, so plan your journey in advance if you are travelling from the coast.
