MUSCAT: Hundreds of football lovers gathered at the Football Fan Festival at Oman Convention and Exhibition Center (OCEC) cheering and ushering the world's biggest sports event as it opened in Doha on Sunday. Three mammoth sized screens set in the artificial lawns of the OCEC brought the action live thanks to the arrangement with the beIN Sports. "Football Fan Festival is Oman’s most exciting football fan celebration, uniting local citizens, residents and overseas visitors through their shared love of the beautiful game while also showcasing Oman's history, heritage, hospitality and stunning beauty," a note from the organisers said. Covering an area of more than 9,000 square metres, the fan festival offers something for everyone - from broadcasting all World Cup 2022 fixtures to creative activation, interactive games, innovative technologies, football competitions, live performances and an array of food and drink options to eat, play and watch for all the family.
