Ras Abrouq / Zekreet, west coast of Qatar, near Film City & Our Habitas Ras Abrouq Resort

What Is Brouq Season?
Brouq Season is Visit Qatar’s signature desert activation in Ras Abrouq, turning the west-coast desert into a winter destination with:
Adventure activities
Cultural programmes and workshops
Live performances and outdoor cinema
Family zones and luxury glamping
The area is famous for dramatic rock formations, coastal views, and Film City, all set inside the Al Reem Biosphere Reserve. If you want a single desert outing that combines thrill rides, culture, and a resort-style feel, Brouq Season is built for that.
Dates, Location & How to Get There
Dates
From: 26 November 2025
To: 17 January 2026
Location of Ras Abrouq
Area: Ras Abrouq / Zekreet, west coast of Qatar
Landmarks: Near Film City and Our Habitas Ras Abrouq Resort
How to reach Ras Abrouq Take Dukhan Highway and exit at Exit 72, then follow signs towards Ras Abrouq / Film City. A standard car usually handles the route, but an SUV/4×4 is more comfortable near desert tracks. Fuel up before leaving the city – stations are limited once you head west.
Tip: Arrive around 3–4 pm to enjoy desert views in daylight, catch sunset photos, then stay for evening shows and food.
Main Zones at Brouq Season
Brouq Season is organised into several themed zones so you can structure your visit around what you like most:
Film City Zone Turned into a traditional-style souq setup. What you’ll find: local food stalls and Qatari dishes, retail kiosks and local brands, cultural performances and heritage-style acts. This is the best place for photos, food, and a relaxed walk after activities.
Wildlife Experience Zone Guided routes through native desert habitats. Focus on local flora and the terrain, and a chance to spot wildlife inside the broader Ras Abrouq area. Ideal for families and visitors who enjoy nature and want more than just rides.
Desert Escape Zone The action hub of Brouq Season. Features include: Adventure Tower with 250 m zipline, free-fall platform, climbing wall, open-air dining and lounge areas, entertainment stages and roaming performers. If you only have a few hours, this is the zone you’ll likely spend most time in.
Glamping Zone Seaside glamping pods with private outdoor lounges, premium amenities, and uninterrupted coastal views. Glamping is ideal if you want to wake up by the sea and desert cliffs instead of driving back to Doha at night.

Safety & Practical Notes
