The event was originally a retail event to promote trade in Oman, and has today taken the guise of an annual shopping festival that continues to draw people from all walks of life.
Muscat City Centre and Qurum City Centre are retail hubs in Oman offering shoppers a variety of lifestyle brands under one roof and will be extending their support to the Muscat Festival 2009 by holding promotions and events that will enthral visitors and tourists alike.
Ibrahim Al Qasmi, General Manager of Muscat City Centre, said:
"In addition to sponsoring the event MAF's participation in this important festival is evidence of our support towards activities and initiatives that boost tourism in Oman. MAF has always been at the forefront in contributing towards social initiatives in the country that attract both residents and tourists."
As part of the festivities, Muscat City Centre will be decorated in the colours of the Muscat Festival, while Bahja, the mascot of the Muscat Festival, will be seen walking around the mall entertaining visitors and tourists alike.
Hassan Jaboub, Mall Manager of Qurum City Centre, said: "Since its opening last month, Qurum City Centre has evolved as a popular shopping destination for customers in the area. With 75 stores including Carrefour and over 1100 car park, QCC is distinctive destination to all".
