The Dhofar Serb Festival kicked off in early September with notable events such as the Salalah Tour cycling race, Dhofar Municipality Ironman Championship, and the Spartan endurance race. These activities are part of a larger plan aimed at expanding the festival's scope to encompass all of the governorate's regions, tailoring events to suit each season in Dhofar Governorate.
The festival is a testament to Oman's commitment to preserving its cultural heritage, promoting economic growth, and fostering a sense of community among its residents and visitors.
This annual celebration promises an unforgettable experience for all who attend and demonstrates the region's dedication to providing diverse entertainment and cultural opportunities.
