Thousands of community members gather at Education City Stadium for Eid Al Adha prayer
Worshippers from across Qatar gathered in thousands at the Education City Stadium for the Eid Al Adha prayer.
The iconic arena's size and safety has led to it becoming a familiar setting for Eid prayers in recent years, following its role as a FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ venue. The Eid Al Adha gathering was organised by Qatar Foundation's (QF) Minaretein Center (Education City Mosque), in collaboration with the Ministry of Endowments (Awqaf) and Islamic Affairs.
Following the prayer, families also enjoyed an array of cultural and entertainment activities, including henna artists, face painting, gifts of 'Eid Mubarak' balloons, and the chance to meet cartoon characters.
