Plan your visit

The Doha Exhibition and Convention Centre is located in the West Bay business area, at the northern end of the corniche seafront walk. From the airport, the DECC can be reached in just over 20 minutes on the direct Doha Metro red line; trains run every five minutes. Electric limos or standard taxis can be found at the Taxi Pavilion to the left of the arrivals hall. You don’t need to give a physical address – the DECC is a well-known landmark. 

Metered Karwa taxis can be hailed directly on the street and are easy to spot, thanks to their bright turquoise colour; you can use the Karwa app to book. Other ride hailing apps such as Uber are also available. The weather in November is perfect for a morning walk if your hotel is close to the DECC, although it can get hot by midday. Check out your route first – sometimes pedestrian options take longer than you might think.
