Halal "Hal Qatar" festival begins on 22 March

The venue for the third edition of the Halal Hal Qatar festival is almost ready for the opening on Saturday, said Mohammad Al Khulaifi, head of the organizing committee.
To be held from March 22 to 31 in the southern area of Katara, the festival aims at reviving the animal trade as an integral part of Qatari culture and heritage. 
It will bring to life rare insights into the sheep and goat industry, allowing visitors to interact with shepherds and journey into this essential aspect of Qatari tradition.
Ahmad bin Nasser Al Kuwari, Chairman of Events, said the  festival comprises three main activities — Al Mazayin, a beauty competition for goats and sheep, Al Mazad (public sale) selling livestock through auction, and Al Izab, barns each containing a different kind of livestock.
Umran Al Kuwari, head of Al Izab committee, said there will be 30 enclosures with 15 to 20 animals each on display.
