Running under the slogan ‘Manama Capital of Joy’ the festival is a month-long programme of events, activities and edutainment running in Nakhool City, a specially constructed space in the exhibition centre hosted by Nakhool, a character symbolising Bahrain’s tradition, culture and Dilmunic history. And, of course, we’ve got the lowdown.

There’ll be a variety of activities taking place indoors at BIECC Hall 1 and next to the stage performance area of the festival.
