Visit Qatar has launched the latest summer edition of its tourism guide, the Qatar Calendar, presenting residents and visitors with three months of events, enticing promotions, and musical performances during Eid Al Adha from June to August.

From beach activities and getaways to indoor theme parks designed to entertain the little ones, this comprehensive guide offers activities for all age groups.

“Qatar has it all. Whether you are seeking adventure, thrilling entertainment, or family fun, residents and visitors will find something that perfectly suits their preferences during the summer months,” said Head of Qatar Calendar Sheikha Noor Abdulla Al Thani.

Visit Qatar has collaborated with stakeholders from across the country to develop a centralised and user-friendly platform that provides all the necessary information, leading to the creation of the Qatar Calendar, she explained.

“Whether it’s our country’s natural attractions, pristine coastline and beaches, or indoor family-friendly fun, we are confident these carefully curated events will help showcase Qatar’s rich hospitality on the global stage,” Sheikha Noor said.

For the Eid Al Adha holidays, Visit Qatar will host two concerts.

“Thekra Remains” at the Qatar National Convention Centre’s (QNCC) Al Mayassa Theatre will feature Moroccan and Tunisian singers Asma Lamnawar and Oumaima Taleb on June 18.

The following day will see the “Lailet Elzaman Eljameel” concert with Egyptian singers Mai Farouk and Reham Abdel Hakim.

For indoor fun, families can visit Qatar’s various indoor amusement parks, such as Virtuocity, Angry Birds World, Doha Quest, and Trocadero.

From June 18 to July 13, families can also enjoy Inflatacity at QNCC, which offers fun activities for both children and adults on inflatables that span an area of 30,000 square metres.
