The five-day Qatar Motor Show will open its doors to the public on January 29-February 2, 2013 at the Doha Exhibition Centre.
The newest edition will again be organised jointly by the Qatar Tourism Authority (QTA), q.media Events, and GL events.
“Each rendition of the Qatar Motor Show has put the country squarely on the global automotive industry map,” QTA chairman Issa bin Mohamed al-Mohannadi said adding:  “Last year’s event proved to be even more popular than the first show in 2011, and I am more than optimistic that the 2013 event will break all our previous records.  We have an exciting line-up this year of international car brands and events taking place concurrently with the motorshow, and I am confident that crowds will be fully entertained and intrigued by what we are offering this time around.”  
“I am delighted that we are once again strategically partnering up with q.media and GL Events for the Qatar Motor Show – who have proved to be essential elements in the successes of our previous events,” he added.
The 2013 Qatar Motor Show will showcase brands from across the globe, from family sedans, to SUVs, luxury vehicles and to sports cars.
“As what has become tradition, the event will happen both inside and outside the Doha Exhibition Centre, with events related to the motor show occurring concurrently,” al-Mohannadi said adding:“Therefore, visitors can also expect to be entertained by drifting shows, a car obstacle course, gymnastic performances, sporting relays, and of course, a classic car show.  Visitors can also expect a surprise or two.”
“We have a line-up that will definitely cause a stir, including the unveiling of never-seen before models from renowned car brands, visits and talks from high-calibre celebrities, an area dedicated to one specialised and innovative car brand and one of the most exciting hyper cars to come to life-with an Arab label,” q.Media chief executive officer Yousif al-Khater said.  
As we get closer to January 29, you’ll know more, but we promise that 2013 will be yet another unforgettable Qatar Motor Show.  We expect the Qatar Motor Show 2013 to be the best one yet.”
The 2012 Qatar Motor Show saw a total of 120,000 visitors, which was some 25% increase from the year before.  
Visitors came from across the region and beyond, providing a tourism boost to the country for the duration of the event.
