When is Web Summit Qatar?

Web Summit Qatar takes place from February 26-29, 2024. View the full schedule here.

Where is Web Summit Qatar?

Web Summit Qatar takes place at the Doha Exhibition and Convention Center (DECC).

What is Opening Night, and how can I attend?

We expect Opening Night and Night Summit, both taking place on Monday evening, to reach full capacity. If Night Summit at Barahat Msheireb does reach capacity, we have extra space at Souq Waqif, where our attendees will also be gathering.

If you plan on joining us for Opening Night at Doha Exhibition and Convention Centre (DECC), please be aware that we are likely to hit capacity early due to high demand and limited space. There’s a chance that you may be waiting for a while, and you may not get in.Entry to Opening Night at the DECC begins at 5pm.

You must be registered, and have collected your wristband and lanyard, to join us. In the event that you’re unable to secure entry to Opening Night at the DECC, don’t worry – Night Summit festivities kick off at 5.45pm, and Barahat Msheireb is just a short metro ride away. You will get to know your fellow attendees in this incredible piazza-style square in the heart of Doha, where you’ll also be able to watch a livestream of Opening Night on the big screen.

We’re blown away by the high demand for Opening Night and want to make sure everyone gets a chance to enjoy the festivities.
