The Doha 2030 Asian Games Bid Committee has pledged to provide all members of the OCA family
with an experience of a lifetime should Doha be awarded the Games in 2030.
Doha is a truly multicultural city – home to people from nearly 100 different countries – and an
established international destination which attracts millions of tourists each year. Doha 2030 will
draw from the city’s wealth of history, culture and entertainment, to ensure that every Games
participant is made to feel welcome in 2030 and that their needs are catered for.
The city’s beautiful, family-friendly beach resorts and luxury spas will provide the perfect place to
relax and unwind away from competition. Doha’s multitude of world-class shopping malls offer
visitors an array of high street and luxury brands as well as a range of recreational facilities; while
those looking to experience the heritage of traditional Arab markets can visit Doha’s spellbinding
Souqs.
Doha also boasts a thriving arts and culture scene with countless museums, galleries and public art
installations that showcase traditional and contemporary Qatari and Asian culture. This fusion of
cultures and the old and new is a hallmark of Doha. It is reflected in the tradition of its harbours set
against a backdrop of stunning modern skyscrapers and in the rich diversity of its restaurants and
nightlife. From fine-dining to family-style, Doha’s thousands of restaurants and cafes serve local and
international cuisines that will cater for the tastes of the whole OCA family.
Doha 2030 Asian Games Bit Committee CEO and the secretary general of Qatar Olympic Committee
HE Jassim Albuenain said:
"Doha has the experience and expertise to deliver Games services to the very highest standards. We
can guarantee world-class venues and training facilities, 5-star accommodation and a seamless
modern transport network, all of which combine to ensure Asia’s athletes will be the stars of our
show. But Doha also offers so much more. It is a city where different cultures live side by side in
harmony and friendship; where tradition meets modernity and where nature meets human
innovation. Doha 2030 would ensure that the special moments the OCA family enjoy in 2030 would
go beyond competitions and would be part of the everyday experiences of living in our magical and
inclusive city."
Qatar National Tourism Council secretary-general and Qatar Airways Group chief executive HE Akbar
al-Baker said "The Asian Games is about more than sport. It is an opportunity to bring Asia together
in friendship and celebration of our cultural diversity. We have no doubt that Doha is the perfect city
to do that because it already makes these kind of connections every day. It is a melting pot of
different cultures and nationalities and attracts millions of international visitors every year. Doha has
something to offer everyone, whatever your age, background or interests. It is a city where everyone
is welcome and where we all belong. And it is a city that is ready to provide the OCA family with the
experience of a lifetime in 2030."
