@Onegreatjoke and Sionk: It looks to me like the hats will be in Wales. It's just the tournament that's in Qatar. "the installations, which will light up in the colours of yellow, green and red, will appear at five locations across Wales for the tournament in Qatar which starts in November" -- RoySmith (talk) 00:33, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
