Due to the coronavirus, the Garden of Lights Festival that was taking place at Al Shaheed Park had to end early. So if you were planning to go to see it over the next few days then you missed out.

Garden of Lights Festival Closed Down
Garden of Lights Festival
Al Shaheed Park have a “Garden of Lights Festival” taking place at the moment but I can’t find anything about it on their Instagram page. I think they aren’t advertising it because of the whole Corona thing but it’s on right now.
I don’t know for how long the festival is on, but last year it took place from March 5th to 15th so might be similar. If you want to check it out then you should head over to the park pretty soon before the festival ends.
Update: The festival is until March 14
Update 2: Due to the Coronavirus, the festival had to be cut short and was closed down yesterday March 9th.

The 2020 Asian Men’s Handball Championship is taking place in Kuwait right now at the newly opened Sheikh Saad Al-Abdullah Sport Hall Complex. If it wasn’t for an email from one of my readers I wouldn’t have known this stadium existed or that the handball championship was taking place in Kuwait.
You’d think with an event this big there would at least be outdoor ads, sponsored Instagram posts or anything really. In the video above the stadium is basically empty.
I haven’t had the chance to pass by and check it out but I’ve been told tickets are free and it’s first come first serve.
Here is the location of the stadium.
Here is the full match schedule with timings.
Here is a link to the Kuwait Handball Association Instagram.
Thanks Milan

A year ago this would have sounded like a funny article on The Onion but this is actually real and happening. In 10 days Riyadh will be hosting the MDL Beast Festival, the largest electronic dance music festival in the region featuring over 70 DJs including Afrojack, Black Coffee, David Guetta, FISHER, J. Balvin, Martin Garrix, Steve Aoki, Sebastian Ingrosso, Tiësto and more. My favorite local band Galaxy Juice will also be part of the lineup.
Tickets start at KD73 for a 3-day pass and go up to KD923 for the VIB tickets (very important beast). For a full lineup of the performers as well as more information on the festival including tickets, visit mdlbeast.com.
The first Qout Market of the season is this weekend and they’ve moved to a new and greener location this time around.
