Aspire Zone Foundation (AZF) on Tuesday said the inaugural Aspire Wonderland Festival received more than 70,000 visitors over seven days.
The festival, thought to be the "first of its kind" in Qatar, concluded on Monday. Visitors who flocked to Aspire Park entered a world of fantasy and folk tales, AZF said in a statement. They also had the chance to witness a "spectacular dancing water fountain on Aspire Lake that moved to the sounds of majestic melodies and featured advanced laser techniques".






During the seven-day festival, AZF said it used more than 400,000 LED light-bulbs, 3,000m of electrical wires and 20 projector systems to design 310 characters. The festival was aided by facilitation processes that AZF provided for adults, children and persons with special needs to reach the event site. 
Nasser Abdullah al-Hajri, director of PR and Communication at AZF, said: “We are proud to have welcomed such vast numbers of visitors to AZF, and for the successful use of our resources and world-class facilities to serve the community in new and exciting ways.
“Over the past week, we succeeded in adding new and distinctive activities to Qatar’s calendar and plan to provide more in the coming period. I would like to extend my appreciation and gratitude to the sponsors, partners and AZF’s team for their unceasing efforts in making the event a success.”
The festival was sponsored by Vodafone Qatar and Katara--the Cultural Village Foundation.
