With free entry to all, football enthusiasts and supporters of all ages can watch all matches to be streamed live from Qatar at gargantuan HD screens in two venues: at the Belgian Café or the vast outside terrace of Crowne Plaza with astonishing views of the creek and the city beyond.  A dedicated area for groups will also be made available to add a private atmosphere while watching the game in action.

 Ultimate fun is guaranteed as exciting activities such as face painting, raffles and competitions await the guests. Other offerings in the menu include popular pub grubs complimented with international dishes not to mention the children’s customized meals and their exciting outdoor play area.
