The tournament was held in the city of Al Rayyan, at Jassim bin Hamad Stadium and Khalifa International Stadium, which previously hosted matches at the 2011 AFC Asian Cup, including the final for the latter. A third venue in Al Rayyan, Education City Stadium, was also originally planned to host matches during the tournament, including the final.{{cite news |url=https://www.fifa.com/clubworldcup/news/education-city-stadium-to-host-fifa-club-world-cup-qatar-2019tm-final |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190930082950/https://www.fifa.com/clubworldcup/news/education-city-stadium-to-host-fifa-club-world-cup-qatar-2019tm-final |url-status=dead |archive-date=30 September 2019 |title=Education City Stadium to host FIFA Club World Cup Qatar 2019 final |website=FIFA.com |publisher=Fédération Internationale de Football Association |date=30 September 2019 |access-date=30 September 2019}} In December 2019, FIFA moved all three matches (the second semi-final on 18 December and the third place match and final on 21 December) that were due to be played at the Education City Stadium to Khalifa International Stadium after the opening of the Education City Stadium was postponed to early 2020.{{cite web |title=New FIFA Club World Cup champions to be crowned at Khalifa International Stadium |url=https://www.fifa.com/clubworldcup/news/new-fifa-club-world-cuptm-champions-to-be-crowned-at-khalifa-international-stadi |website=FIFA.com |publisher=Fédération Internationale de Football Association |date=7 December 2019 |access-date=7 December 2019}}

In 2017, three member countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council along with Egypt cut diplomatic ties with Qatar and criminalised trips for their citizens to the country. In October, FIFA sold 200 Club World Cup tickets to fans from Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, and 500 to those from the United Arab Emirates and Egypt. In November 2019, Human Rights Watch (HRW) criticised FIFA for neglecting fan welfare and selling tickets for the Club World Cup to those banned by their governments. HRW stated that FIFA should be aware of the risks that the football supporters can face in their countries and ensure that they are not exposed to the risk of harassment or prosecution.{{cite web |title=FIFA criticised over ticket sales to fans banned from Qatar |url=https://www.theticketingbusiness.com/2019/11/13/fifa-criticised-ticket-sales-fans-banned-qatar/ |website=TheTicketingBusiness |access-date=13 November 2019}}
