Qatar National Sports Day 2023 events

Every year, on the second Tuesday of February, Qatar celebrates National Sports Day, a national holiday. National sports day is a designated public holiday; everyone is encouraged to participate in sporting activities with their families and colleagues. Qatar's government requires that public and private entities organize sports events. 

This year, the Qatar National Sports Day 2023 falls on February 14, and several public and private organizations have geared up to celebrate the day with a lineup of events—both paid and free.
