Visit Qatar invites GCC travelers to enjoy country's vibrant winter season
Visit Qatar has launched its latest
marketing initiative, Winter in Qatar 2026, inviting travelers from
across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) to experience the country’s vibrant
winter season, packed with cultural, adventure, and family-friendly activities.
Building on the success of the Moments
Made For You campaign, the new edition highlights how Qatar creates
unforgettable, tailored experiences for every type of visitor—whether seeking
desert thrills, cultural treasures, luxury escapes, or entertainment-packed
city breaks.
The first campaign video, released
today, stars Kuwaiti content creator and theatre actor Khaled Abdullah Al
Mouzaffar. Known for his energetic digital storytelling, Al Mouzaffar embarks
on an adventure with friends, from dune bashing at Sealine to the electrifying
atmosphere of UFC Fight Night. The film captures Qatar’s unique blend of
adrenaline, culture, and world-class entertainment.

In the coming weeks, two additional
videos will be launched, featuring popular regional creators. Among them are
Farah and Aqeel, whose warm, family-oriented content—often featuring their
young son Adam—resonates widely with regional audiences, as well as Lebanese
entrepreneur and fashion influencer Karen Wazen, who brings her signature style
and family-focused storytelling to the campaign.
The videos showcase Qatar’s most
iconic winter attractions, from the dramatic landscapes of Ras Abrouq and the
luxury of Zulal Wellness Resort to the elegance of Place Vendôme. They also
highlight the charm of Msheireb Downtown, the vibrancy of Souq Waqif, and
Katara’s cultural landmarks, alongside culinary highlights at the Qatar
International Food Festival and family favourites such as Mina District and
Angry Birds World at Doha Festival City.
With Qatar just a short flight from
most GCC cities, travelers benefit from seamless access. Citizens of GCC
states enjoy visa-free entry using only their national ID card, with expedited
arrival procedures at Hamad International Airport. Overland visitors can also
enter easily via the Abu Samra border.
