Lusail (Arabic: لوسيل, ALA-LC: Lūsayl, Arabic pronunciation: [luːˈsajl]) is the third-largest city in Qatar after Doha and Al-Rayyan, and serves as an important economic hub. Located on the coast in the southern part of the municipality of Al Daayen, it lies about 23 kilometres (14 mi) north of the Doha city centre, just north of the West Bay Lagoon, covering over 38 square kilometres (15 sq mi). It will eventually have the infrastructure to accommodate 450,000 people, of which it is estimated that 250,000 or fewer will be residents, with around 190,000 office workers and 60,000 retail workers.

It is planned to have marinas, residential areas, island resorts, commercial districts, luxury shopping and leisure facilities, a golf course community, man-made islands, and several entertainment districts. Development is being carried out by the state-controlled developer Qatari Diar along with Parsons Corporation and Dorsch-Gruppe.

Lusail Stadium was one of the venues for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, and hosted the final. It is also the site of a Formula One race track where the first Qatar Grand Prix was held in 2021.
