Onam Decor in Qatar

With people from all walks of life, Qatar is truly a melting pot of cultures. About 90% of the population in the country is made up of expats, 24% of whom are from India. Indians make up the vast majority of the workforce in the capital city of Doha, as well as in the neighboring towns and cities. 

Of these Indians, a large number are from the regional state of Kerala, situated in the southern part of the country. Befitting its title of “God’s Own Country”, Kerala is a land of colours, festivals, dances and beautiful ethnic traditions. 

A great many of the festivals and traditions are celebrated by the Malayali (Keralite) diaspora in Qatar as well, with Onam being the most popular. Onam is an annual Indian harvest festival celebrated predominantly by the Hindus of Kerala. A major annual event for Keralites, it is the official festival of the state and includes a spectrum of cultural events - from tasty traditional Sadhya on banana leaves, to colourful decorations.

In this article we will give you a little insight into where you could find Onam decor in Qatar - from flowers and banana leaves, to lamps and wall hangings. Looking for decorations at Indian grocery stores or the tiny corner stores that sell Indian cultural items could surprise you as well.
