Swedish luxury bed brand Hästens debuts in Doha with exclusive launch at Tivoli Furniture
The official launch event of Hästens, the world-renowned Swedish luxury bed brand, took place on May 28th at Tivoli Furniture Showroom in Al Rayyan. The event was attended by His Excellency Mr. Gautam Bhattacharyya, Ambassador of Sweden to the State of Qatar, who delivered a speech on this occasion, stating: "Hästens is an embodiment of the Swedish philosophy that true luxury is found in the things that nourish us — not just materially, but also in spirit and well-being. I am proud to see this icon of Swedish craftsmanship and sixth-generation family entrepreneurship present in Qatar, a country renowned for its appreciation for high quality concepts" The event also welcomed an exclusive guest list of distinguished figures from both the public and private sectors, alongside high-profile media representatives and influencers, all gathered to experience the essence of a brand that is redefining sleep across the globe. Now officially available in Doha through Tivoli, Hästens brings over 170 years of heritage, craftsmanship, and innovation to the Qatari market. Known for its commitment to natural materials and handcrafted excellence, Hästens is not just a bed, it is a revolution in the way we rest, recover, and live. Each bed is meticulously handmade in Sweden using natural, breathable materials such as horsehair, cotton, wool, and flax. These components are hypoallergenic, temperature-regulating, and designed to support the body's natural posture, offering an unmatched level of comfort and deep rest. Unlike conventional beds made with synthetic foams and chemicals, Hästens beds adapt to the body rather than forcing the body to adjust to the bed. This results in better spinal alignment, pressure relief for joints, and an overall sensation of lightness upon waking—qualities that have earned Hästens a devoted following worldwide. In fact, many of the world's most prominent celebrities, professional athletes, and political figures choose Hästens for their homes, recognizing its unique ability to enhance rest, recovery, and overall well-being. The launch event also introduced guests to the brand's signature Sleep Spa Experience, an immersive environment where visitors can disconnect, recharge, and rediscover the power of true rest. With personalized consultations and thoughtfully designed spaces, Hästens invites customers to prioritize their well-being by elevating the way they sleep. Hästens is now available exclusively at Tivoli, marking a new era of luxury and wellness-focused living in Doha. Source and cover image credit: Press release

Transvision Vamp singer Wendy James to perform in Buckley
The singer will take to the stage at the Tivoli on Saturday, October 25, as part of a UK tour in support of recently released album 'The Shape of History.' The album, which is the tenth solo album by the Transvision Vamp lead singer, was written, produced, and mixed by James herself. It was recorded in West London and New York City, and is available digitally, on deluxe vinyl, and on deluxe CD. James will be accompanied on tour by a full band, including Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' Jim Sclavunos on drums and Alex Ward on guitar. They will be playing songs from across all of her albums. Reflecting on 'The Shape of History,' James said: "My songwriting has always been a wide mix of sounds, which naturally reflect the different music and references I have and love. "'The Shape Of History' was recorded on Scrubs Lane, West London, with Alex Ward, Harry Bohay, and James Sclavunos. "I then went off to NYC and Brooklyn to record the pianos and organs with Dave 'The Moose' Sherman. "Overdubbing continued with Al Lawson at the engineering helm in his Shepherd's Bush studio and then I went back to Berkeley, California to mix with Jesse Nichols before mastering with Fred Kevorkian in Brooklyn, New York. "I have spent so much time with this music, I know it note-for-note and love it, and am so happy for you to make it your own now. "'The Shape Of History' has a lot about love in it, a lot about appreciation of oneself, one's life and, importantly, of others. "It is life's arc of starting out, blooming into something and in some ways maturing. "I don't think my music has got older, I know I've not gone mellow! "My attitude can be more ferocious and fearless than ever, but there is an acquired wisdom, which naturally comes after having been alive for a few decades! "'The Shape Of History' is a love letter and a thank you note to life so far. "The culmination of my tenth album is the result of co-musicians and engineers who I've worked with previously and with whom I share a language. "We know each other, we choose to work together. "We enjoy each other's talents and personalities.
