The greatest pop culture festival in Qatar, Geekend, is returning to the Doha Film Institute. It will take place in the Geekdom Building on Lusail Boulevard from 6 to 8 June. With a wide variety of events, marketplaces, and performances, Geekend 2024 is expected to provide fans of all ages and interests with an immersive experience. For only 20 QAR, daily tickets get access to a creative and fandom-filled universe.
In addition to offering engaging and inspiring experiences and a special stage for local artists to showcase their love of pop culture, the festival features the always-popular Geekdom Market, amazing stage programmes and activities, exhilarating games, competitions, seminars, and much more.
23 collectors from Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, the UAE, and Oman have assembled a unique collection of memorabilia in Geekdom's artist and vendor alley, in addition to showcasing the artwork of local and regional artists to entice ardent collectors.
Mission Possible (previously known as "Escape Table") and Geekdom Side Quests are part of the three-day extravaganza. Mission Possible offers participatory daily activities like the "Treasure Hunt," where players decipher hints and riddles to find hidden prizes.
Players are invited to participate in a survival-style competition called the Beyond Solar Gaming competition, which is hosted by COREGAME and created by local game developer Fadi Soufi. Players fight to get the highest scores on the scoreboard. 16 players will compete over the first two days of the Geekend CATAN Boardgame Tournament, hosted by Majlis Shabab, with a big climax taking place on the third day.
The spectacular stage programme of the event will include Nakama-organized events such as the Tokyo Street Fashion Contest, Family Feud Anime Edition, Nakama Classroom, and an Art Contest where participants will draw themed characters. There will also be karaoke nights.
