Omani National Day
Cultural Celebration
Oman National Day is celebrated on the 18 November. The purpose of the Omani national Day event was to share the Omani heritage with different cultures, and to tell them what Oman is about. As a small Omani community in Belfast, this event provided an opportunity to celebrate with colleagues, friends, and staff at Queen's.
Organising such an event required proper planning, structuring, determination and initiative to lead.
The event hosted around 250 attendees from various schools around the campus. Activities held during the day included talks, a photo exhibition and henna tattoos application. Guests were able to view catalogue and brochures collections. Attendees were also able to experience Omani costumes and music first hand.
