The Socceroos’ November 17 friendly against Jordan is set to proceed in Doha, Qatar, after Football Australia and the Jordan Football Association agreed to move it from Amman. The venue change is confirmed; the kickoff time and specific stadium are still listed as TBC, so Australian viewers should check the official fixture before making plans.
The change follows security concerns around the original Amman trip. Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) continues to advise travelers to reconsider their need to travel to Jordan. That advisory is travel guidance, not confirmation of a specific incident at the match. For fans, the immediate practical step is to follow Football Australia and Socceroos channels for match logistics, and Smartraveller for travel advice.
Football Australia announced that the Jordan Football Association accepted its request to relocate the fixture from Amman to Doha. The Socceroos will remain in Qatar after their match against Qatar, avoiding a separate trip to Jordan for this fixture. Football Australia says the match will take place on Tuesday, November 17, with the corresponding Australian date falling on Wednesday, November 18.
The official announcement does not provide a final stadium or kickoff time. Earlier schedule details for Amman should not be treated as current Doha details. The Football Australia relocation announcement is the primary source for the venue change. The Socceroos fixtures page provides the current fixture and match-center links, though listings can take time to reflect new details.
Start with Football Australia’s news page and the Socceroos’ official fixtures and match-center pages. These are the places to check for a confirmed stadium, kickoff time, squad news, match-day notices, and any later change to the fixture. Avoid relying on older posts or screenshots that still show Amman: they may describe the original schedule.
The Socceroos fixture listing identifies Paramount+ as the broadcaster for the international friendly. Confirm the service’s live event listing closer to kickoff, since broadcast details and availability can change. The relocation announcement does not give a new kickoff time, so do not convert the old Amman time into a Doha time or assume the time has stayed the same.
For Australian viewers, the announced date is Tuesday evening in Doha and Wednesday in Australia. Doha uses Arabia Standard Time (UTC+03:00), which does not observe daylight saving time. On November 17, Doha is eight hours behind AEDT (UTC+11:00). However, an exact Doha kickoff and corresponding Australian viewing time cannot be stated until organizers confirm the start time.
DFAT’s Jordan travel advice on Smartraveller says Australians should reconsider their need to travel to Jordan because of the unpredictable security situation in Jordan and the region, and the threat of terrorism. It also warns that conditions can deteriorate quickly and advice levels may change at short notice. This is general government travel advice; it does not say that a particular match-day incident has occurred.
If you are already planning travel, check Smartraveller directly before departure and again during your trip. Review airline and accommodation terms, and contact your airline about itinerary changes if your plans involved Amman. The match itself is now scheduled for Doha, but the relocation alone does not determine whether a traveler’s wider plans are safe or suitable.
For match logistics, rely on the football associations’ announcements. For personal travel decisions, use government travel advice and your airline’s direct notices. Social posts can help point you toward an update, but verify important claims against those primary sources before changing plans.
The confirmed relocation means the teams can still meet during the international window without staging this match in Amman. The next details fans need are the Doha stadium and kickoff time. Until organizers publish those specifics, treat the date and city as confirmed while treating the start time and venue as pending. If kickoff is announced, Australian match listings may show it in AEDT; Doha local time and AEDT differ by eight hours on the match date.
Football Australia has described player and staff safety as a priority in its earlier communications about security assessments. The public relocation announcement confirms the agreed change but does not publish a detailed security assessment. Readers should avoid filling that gap with speculation: check for further official statements if the reason or travel arrangements materially change.
Yes. Football Australia says the match will proceed in Doha on Tuesday, November 17, 2026, subject to any later official update.
The kickoff time is TBC in Football Australia’s announcement. Check the Socceroos fixture and match center for confirmation.
Use the Australian government’s Smartraveller page for Jordan, which states the current advice level and travel guidance.
