BTEA’s Ramadan tourism guide launched
Bahrain has launched the ‘Ramadan in Bahrain’ tourism guide, presenting visitors with a diverse range of events, Iftar and Suhoor offerings, and accommodation packages for an enriching holy month experience.
Festivities spearheaded by Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority (BTEA), which are underway at Bahrain National Theatre, promise cultural immersion and vibrant celebrations.
The festivities are also in line with Manama being named the Gulf tourism capital for 2024. Tourism Minister Fatima Al Sairafi unveiled the logo of the festivities last week, amidst the scenic backdrop of the outdoor courtyard at the Bahrain National Theatre.
The festivities at the Bahrain National Theatre allow visitors and tourists to immerse themselves in the vibrant culture of the season through live performances, a bazaar, seating areas, food and beverage vendors, and more.
