Doha, Qatar: The Ministry of Culture announced that the National Day Parade will kick off on Thursday, December 18, 2025, along the Doha Corniche, showcasing a grand national display that embodies the values of unity and loyalty.
This year marks the return of the parade after a 3-year hiatus, coinciding with a period of regional challenges and global events, including the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, which has deeply affected the Palestinian people.
The parade, inspired by the National Day slogan derived from the words of HH the Amir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, “With You It Rises, From You It Awaits”, symbolizes the enduring spirit of giving, unity, and pride shared by the leadership and the people.
It reaffirms national belonging as a deeply rooted cultural value passed down through generations, reflecting the authentic legacy of Qatar’s history.
“The National Parade stands as a living testament to the will to give, the spirit of generosity, and the unity of purpose that have propelled Qatar’s progress and prosperity among nations. It also reinforces feelings of pride, loyalty, and solidarity, commemorating the sacrifices of forefathers who dedicated their lives to the nation’s glory,” said the ministry.
This grand celebration renews the spirit of national unity and highlights the continuity of generations — a reminder of the steadfast covenant of loyalty, commitment, and hard work that continues to drive Qatar toward honor and distinction.
