This year’s entertainment offerings are geared towards families, with children’s shows and movie premieres, as well as concerts and sports events. With more than 30 public and private sector partners offering a range of exciting promotions and activities, we are excited to make Qatar an attractive destination for Eid holidays.”
“The summer festivities, which this year include both Eid holidays, form a key part of our strategy to energise the tourism sector through diversifying Qatar’s events calendar,” she said.
Among the newest summer attractions this year are three unique indoor theme parks operated by Trimoo Parks and located inside Doha Festival City. The first ever Angry Birds World theme park will launch its new outdoor area.
