Motor show to feature top cars, exciting programmes

Car lovers can enjoy viewing top sports, luxury and mid-range brands at this year’s Qatar Motor Show at the Doha Exhibition and Convention Centre (DECC) from January 28 to February 1.
With 40 exhibitors taking part in its sixth edition, the event offers a larger automotive experience with 18% more brands including two surprise exhibitor reveals when the show opens.
Exhibitors include Audi, BMW, Bosch, Cadillac, Castrol, Chrysler, Continental, Dodge, Ducati, Ferrari, Ford, GMC, Harley-Davidson, Infiniti, Jaguar, Jeep, KTM, Land Rover, Lexus, Maserati, Maxus, Mercedes Benz, Mini, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Piaggio, Porsche, RAM, Renault, Rolls-Royce, Sand X, Titanium, Toyota, Triumph, VW and Ziebart. 
Entry is free to the public and pre-registration will open on January 24. Pre-registered visitors will be given priority access.
For the first time in Qatar, visitors will ‘Explore the World of Motion’ which is this year’s theme, with a variety of exciting features, including a Formula 1 driving simulator by Evotek Engineering. 
Devilray by Carbondrone will also be on display at the show as a new addition. Carbondrone is the realisation of a dream for a group of experienced industry professionals who come from the world of MotoGP and Formula 1, which will be demonstrated at this year’s event.  
“We are thrilled with the development of this year’s show and how we are continuing to add further value and experiences for visitors,” said Hamad al-Abdan, director of exhibitions at Qatar Tourism Authority (QTA). “Qatar Motor Show is the perfect landscape to highlight the world-class facilities and attractions that make Qatar a leading choice for business events.”
As the largest and most exciting annual automotive event in the region, the show will offer outdoor and indoor activities. 
During the five-day show, the city will also get to experience a daily parade of unique and exciting cars that will travel around West Bay, from off-road motors and classic cars to the dynamic sports models.
In addition to the traditional showroom experience, this year the event will allow visitors additional activities in the ‘fanzone.’ It is an interactive and experiential outdoor area at the DECC for all ages to enjoy that will include family friendly activities and exciting test drive experiences from leading automotive brands. 
Hosted by QTA as part of the long-term Qatar National Tourism Sector Strategy 2030 vision, the event has become one of the most anticipated regional consumer and trade shows on Qatar’s annual events calendar.
Key partners at this year’s event include Commercial Bank as official bank sponsor and Marriott Marquis City Center Doha as the official hotel.
