FIFA Fan Festival
The FIFA Fan Festival at Al Bidda Park will host a special test event for Hayya Card holders on Wednesday 16 November.
The event will serve as the final rehearsal before the fan activation opens to the public on 19 November, ahead of the FIFA World Cup, which takes place from 20 November to 18 December.
People who attend the test event will be entertained by a resident DJ and special Michael Jackson Show. Gates will open at 5 PM, with the show running until 10pm. Visitors will be able to enjoy international beverages from 7-10 PM, with last orders taken at 9:30pm. After the event, visitors will have until 11 PM to leave the site, with the Doha Metro operating until 3 AM.
The event is open to Hayya Card holders only. The Hayya Card is a mandatory requirement for FIFA World Cup ticket holders. It will provide access to stadiums – with a valid match ticket – and other benefits, such as free public transport during the tournament. For international fans, the Hayya Card will act as an entry permit to Qatar during the tournament.
