Al Lusail was launched in 2016 by Lürssen at their yard near Bremen.

Its length is 123 m (404 ft), beam is 23 m (75 ft) and she has a draught of 5.50 m (18.0 ft).[4] The hull is built out of steel, while the superstructure is made out of aluminium with teak laid decks.[4] The yacht is classed by Lloyd's Register and flagged in Qatar.

History

Its name refers to Lusail, a city 15 kilometers from Doha, the capital of Qatar, which stands out for its futuristic designs and hosted the 2022 World Cup.[5] In 2026, the vessel underwent a seven-month refit at Lürssen.[6]

Along with other superyachts, including Steven Spielberg's yacht Seven Seas, Al Lusail has been moored in the yacht harbor of Tarragona, Spain.[5]
