Global pop icons Katy Perry, Maluma, and Maroon 5 wowed crowds with sensational performances at the Doha Exhibition and Convention Centre (DECC) for the Qatar Live series of concerts on December 15, 16, and 19.
The artists celebrated their first appearances in the country as part of the Qatar Live series of special music concerts and festivals organised by Qatar Airways and Qatar National Tourism Council (QNTC), supported by Ooredoo as Platinum Sponsor. The concerts attracted thousands of residents and visitors.
Qatar Live was organised to align with the FIFA Club World Cup Qatar 2019 (December 11- 21) to provide world-class entertainment for football fans, visitors and local residents. “We are delighted to have had the opportunity to welcome some of the biggest stars on the planet to Qatar to share in the incredible Qatar Live festival of music and entertainment. To see so many people coming together to attend Qatar Live alongside the FIFA Club World Cup Qatar 2019 has firmly placed Qatar centre-stage in terms of entertainment and sport,” Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive and Secretary-General of QNTC, HE Akbar al-Baker, said.
Earlier this month, Cheb Khaled and Hatim Ammor performed to hundreds of fans at DECC on December 13 and, in addition to the Qatar Live concerts, Qatar Airways and QNTC brought the Daydream Festival to Qatar for the first time on December 12 and 20.
The world-renowned festival, hosted at the Ritz-Carlton, Doha, takes place each year at different locations around the world, bringing together the best DJs in dance and electronic music.
