Al Wakrah celebration halls complex unveiled

Qatar recently opened the Al Wakrah celebration halls complex, following in the footsteps of similar structures in Al Daayen and Al Rifaa.

Mohammed bin Abdullah Al-Rumaihi, the minister of Municipality and Environment, did the unveiling and commended the Private Engineering Office for its work in building the complex. He said halls such as these make marriages less expensive for young couples.

Abdullah Al Dossari, head of projects at the engineering office, said the complex offers five main halls that can hold 500 people each or open into space for 2,500. He said use of the halls is free, although a small sum is collected for insurance and then refunded if all goes well.
