Vietnam's T&T Group and Qatar’s JTA investment group have unveiled plan to develop a $4.5 billion international-standard sports complex and Disneyland-style theme park in Hanoi’s Dong Anh district.

T&T Group said the planned site would span 330 hectares and include both a multi-purpose sports complex and an entertainment park, expected to become a major regional draw.

Under the terms of the memorandum of understanding signed by T&T and JTA, the Qatar-based group will manage the project’s financing. T&T Group will handle legal compliance, operational planning, and infrastructure development alongside JTA, in line with Vietnamese and international standards.

T&T Group said the project’s sports facilities, representing about $1.3 billion of the investment, are expected to meet Olympic standards, including a centerpiece stadium and advanced athletic infrastructure.

The Disneyland-style theme park, with a budget of around $3.2 billion, aims to capture Vietnam’s largest amusement park market, with attractions inspired by globally renowned theme parks.

T&T Group Vice Chairman, Do Vinh Quang, highlighted the complex's potential to boost Vietnam’s tourism and economic development, while establishing a strong foundation for Vietnam-Qatar cooperation.

“This project will not only elevate Vietnam’s sports and cultural life but also open economic opportunities in Hanoi and beyond,” Quang said.

T&T Group, known for its involvement in Vietnamese sports, founded the Hanoi Football Club, which has become the nation’s most successful professional team, with six national titles. The group has also backed Thai Nguyen Women’s Football Club and invested in table tennis, with Hanoi Table Tennis Club athletes recently winning gold at the SEA Games.

T&T has additionally invested in sports infrastructure and youth sports programs throughout Vietnam. The company recently sponsored the 2024 Hanoi Cup Women’s International Football Tournament, marking the 70th anniversary of the capital's liberation.

With its new project in Hanoi, T&T Group is reinforcing its commitment to Vietnam’s sports industry and long-term economic growth, aiming to elevate Vietnamese sports on the international stage.
