In July 2015, the Embassy of Qatar had the privilege to sponsor the 10th anniversary of the Eid Festival in London with the Mayor of London’s office.

The event was a huge success, with over 35,000 people gathering at the iconic venue of Trafalgar Square, highlighting Qatar’s strong and important relationship with the UK.

At the celebrations, people had the opportunity to experience real Arabic hospitality with complimentary coffee with dates. The Qatari Embassy also hosted workshops on traditional calligraphy and literature, and exhibitions with beautiful authentic Qatari clothing for visitors to try, alongside photo opportunities with the national bird of Qatar, the Falcon.
