Doha: Doha Festival City (DFC) has unveiled a new addition to its edutainment activities offering, which presents fun learning experiences. 

The new ‘Festival Space’ augmented reality area will open its doors tomorrow, offering a high-tech immersive experience for kids and adults to enjoy and learn about the wonders of the solar system, universe, and the vast expanse of cosmos.   

Festival Space will be open daily to visitors at the entertainment area on the first floor next to Ladurée to offer the mall visitors a chance to experience a virtual tour of the cosmos, learning about the different planets in our solar system, the sun and various stars, constellations, comets and other outer space phenomena. Visitors can experience the splendour of the star showered horizon in a scintillating tour that simulates a journey in the vast void of space. 

With innovation being at the core of DFC's strategy, it will continue to offer the latest shopping, comfort, and edutainment options to its visitors to constantly redefine excellence, striving to bring the top global brands and offer top-of-the-line education and entertainment options. The mall is home to the most breathtaking indoor and outdoor attractions unique to Qatar, including Qatar’s  first VOX Cinema, the spectacular Angry Birds World, and Virtuocity, and the Outdoor Leisure Trail, a space developed for exercise and cycling.

Robert Hall, DFC's General Manager, said, “The launch of our new Festival Space attraction is a remarkable new addition to our edutainment activities at the mall. We look forward to welcoming our visitors and their children to experience this breathtaking journey through the wonders of our universe and learn about the marvels that surround our earth as part of the multitude of unique shopping and entertainment experiences they can enjoy at Doha Festival City.”
