Citizens from the Wilayat of Suhar held a public festival to celebrate the arrival of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos in Suhar and the occasion of Eid al Fitr in front of the historic Suhar Fort, on Tuesday.


Jubilant citizens renewed their pledge of allegiance and loyalty to the leader of the nation with 12 folk troupes staging traditional dances and singing songs.


The citizens expressed their happiness over the presence of His Majesty the Sultan in Suhar praying to the Almighty Allah to grant him good health and long life and the Omani people security and stability under His Majesty’s leadership.


Citizens staged traditional arts reflecting the rich heritage of Suhar mixed with aspects of great modern achievements which took place during the Renaissance time initiated by His Majesty the Sultan.


Abdulrahman bin Salim al Qasmi, festival supervisor, said: “The Wilayat of Suhar is celebrating two auspicious happy occasions — the blessed Eid al Fitr and the presence of His Majesty in Suhar. The celebrations began today at the Suhar Fort and will continue for four days. The concluding event will be held at the camel race track on Saturday morning.”


A maritime festival, to be held at Al Afifa beach on Wednesday, includes several events which will be staged by seafarers on boats. A poetry evening will be held at the Sultan Qaboos Mosque in the evening.
