Who it’s for: Families, expats, and young professionals who want either an early-night celebration or a late-party scene.

Hotel Halloween Brunches (Mövenpick, Fraser Suites, Ritz-Carlton community events)

When & price: Late Oct to Nov 1; prices vary — expect QAR 60–175 for kids and QAR 80–175+ for adults depending on venue.
Why go: Easy, relaxed, and safe for families with younger kids.

Fraser Suites Dessert Buffet & Kids’ Sessions

What: Evening dessert buffets and pumpkin-carving stations — kids often get free or discounted entry with a paid adult.

Doha Mums & compound parties

What: Morning/afternoon kids’ meet-ups with costume contests and prizes — often at hotel ballrooms or community centres.
Why go: Community vibe, prizes, and kid-focused entertainment.

Trader Vic’s / Hotel bars & Rooftop lounges

What: Costume nights, DJs, themed cocktails and prize contests. Ideal for a fun adult night without a huge production.

Why go: Reliable, good food + drinks and a party crowd.

Island / Cruise parties (Al Safliya Island)

What: Boat trips from The Pearl to Al Safliya with BBQ dinner, DJ and costume contests.
When & price: Around Nov 1; tickets QAR 170–240 depending on package.
Why go: Unique setting — sea breeze, great photos and a party with a view.

Themed restaurant nights (Urban Jazz Kitchen, Baan Thai, casual spots)

What: Special menu items, discounts, and light entertainment for a casual Halloween dinner.
Why go: Low-key, budget-friendly and perfect for groups who want dinner + a small celebration.

Book hotels & brunches early. Popular brunch slots and cruises sell out fast.
Respect local norms. Keep costumes tasteful — avoid gore and religious imagery. Public modesty still applies in many places.
Transport: West Bay and The Pearl can be busy — use taxis or ride-hailing apps and allow extra travel time.
Family vs adult timing: Family events usually run earlier; club nights and rooftop parties start later in the evening.
Check event pages. Many parties list tickets and dress codes online — buy ahead to avoid lines.
