World cup fever spreads from Qatar in Middle East tourism boom
Qatar is gearing up for a World Cup tourism boom as the tiny Gulf state prepares to welcome more than a million soccer fans. One complication: many of them can’t or won’t stay there.
The city will be the first in the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia region to host the global forum.
The festival was launched on Friday under the theme “Feed the future”.
From Oct. 3-5, the Caribbean Hotel and Tourism Association will hold its annual Caribbean Travel Marketplace event for the first time since the onset of the pandemic.
