Qatar Summer Wonders Festival came to a close with a grand finale at Doha's City Center mall.
Performers of the nearly 25 participating countries staged a parade at the closing ceremony led by bugle-blowing army band and Qatari participants in traditional dress, some of them wielding ceremonial swords. The summer promotion was organised by the General Tourism Authority in association with the participating shopping centres. The events were mainly held at four locations, City Center-Doha, Exhibition Centre, Landmark and The Mall.
