Dhofar Fall 2024 Ready to Break Tourism Records with Immersive Cultural Activities

The Municipality of Dhofar has announced its preparations for the upcoming Dhofar Fall 2024 activities in collaboration with the Ministry of Heritage and Tourism in the Sultanate of Oman. Last year, Dhofar Fall 2023 attracted 962 thousand visitors compared to 813 thousand in 2022, and this year’s season is expected to exceed one million.

The Mayor of Dhofar, Dr. Ahmed bin Mohsen Al-Ghassani, revealed at a press conference at the Arabian Travel Market 2024 exhibition in Dubai that this year’s activities will commence early at existing and new locations for the fall season, starting on June 21 and concluding on September 20. The extended three-month period aims to attract a larger number of tourists.

One of the main highlights of the activities at the Arabian Travel Market was the launch of the “Atin Square” website, which showcased various events including Omani and Arab artistic concerts at the Al Murooj Theater. The games area in Atin Square will feature a sports challenge field.

In addition to Atin Square, “Return of the Past” activities in the Al-Saada area will simulate local environments in the Dhofar Governorate, with new additions from other governorates of Oman. This will provide visitors with an immersive experience that showcases Oman’s rich cultural heritage.

Finally, the first “Dhofar International Theater Festival” will be organized to promote participation from authorities in Oman and showcase local talent on a global stage. This festival is expected to be a major draw for visitors from around the world who are interested in experiencing Oman’s unique cultural offerings.

Overall, these activities aim to attract more tourists while providing them with a memorable experience that celebrates Oman’s rich history and culture.
