Luxurious Ramadan
Now that Ramadan is coming, click here for link, a lot of expats don’t know what to expect here in Doha. During the day, things are usually calm and quite, work hours are usually cut short, and people are more laid back.
However this doesn’t mean that things are dead and nothings going on! Not at all! A great thing about Ramadan is it’s a time to taste some amazing food and see some great designs. At night, all the major places will have tents set up so that you can have a great dinner and some entertainment.
Be prepared to see how the Ritz see’s Ramadan, enjoy traditional Qatari food with a Four Season’s Twist, walk around the festive Souq Wagif, and just take it easy! You’ll enjoy all the different coloured lanterns and hear some fireworks going off in Doha. Lay back, sit at your favourite Sheesha by the sea and stare into the starry sky.
You’ll have some great things to see. Now although Ramadan is a religious time, there are those who prefer to party a bit at night, so there’ll be stuff for them to do too. Just don’t go too wild alright?

Mr Q. I heard this year that your government banned any kind of entertainment inside the ramadhan tent unlike years before?
I went to intercon last year … the food was great … but the music amazingly loud, we had to shout in order to speak to the person next to us.
Not too sure what to expect this year.

impossible, I mean, i just went to Al Sharq who told me yesterday that they’re going to do a huge event.
Ramadan without tents wouldn’t be Ramadan!
