The National Sport Day Committee unveiled details for the 2027 edition of National Sport Day (NSD), scheduled to take place across the country in February 2027.
For the first time, the event will coincide with the holy month of Ramadan, held under the theme "Ramadan... A golden opportunity”.
The details and new identity for the upcoming edition were announced during a press conference held yesterday at Lusail Sports Arena, attended by representatives from various partner organisations.
The NSD Committee outlined the event’s direction and programmes, and explained that the event’s theme reflects the Committee’s commitment to embedding sports into daily routines, even during Ramadan, to support public health and inspire individuals to make positive, lasting changes to their physical activity habits.
Adviser to the Minister of Sports and Youth (MSY) and President of the NSD Committee Abdulrahman bin Musallam al-Dosari emphasised that this national occasion serves as a vital milestone for fostering community awareness regarding the importance of sports and its role in enhancing quality of life.
He noted that holding the upcoming edition during Ramadan offers a unique opportunity to encourage the community to reorganise daily routines and integrate physical activity into their lifestyles throughout the holy month.
Regarding the programmes for the upcoming edition, events will be held across public parks, walking, and running tracks, and various sports facilities throughout the country, allowing community members to engage in physical activities in convenient locations close to where they live.
