The 7th edition of the Qatar Balloon Festival, one of Qatar’s most notable entertainment events, will be held in Doha from 10 to 19 December 2026. The 10-day festival will feature colorful balloons soaring freely in the skies of Doha every morning. The event, which runs from morning until midnight (12:00 am – 12:00 am), is organized during the country’s busiest winter season.
In the evenings, the festival will completely transform into a festival. Featuring illuminated balloons, various family-friendly entertainment programs, a variety of food stalls, and live performances, the festival will present a completely different side of Qatar at night. As this year’s Balloon Festival coincides with Qatar’s National Day celebrations, it will be an unforgettable experience for visitors.
