Nightlife in Doha

Nightlife in Doha revolves mostly around the swanky 5-star hotels that often offer rooftop views, fine cuisine, and live musicians or DJs playing late into the night. Alcohol is forbidden for locals, but foreigners can drink in hotels. For a taste of Qatari culture, consider a visit to one of the many shisha terraces, which you can find throughout the city.

If you plan on going clubbing in Doha, it’s important to note that Qataris enjoy their weekends on Fridays and Saturdays, making Thursday and Friday nights the best times for a good crowd.
