Manama, June 10 (BNA): The Bahrain Summer Toy Festival is returning for its third year thanks to the Bahrain Tourism & Exhibitions Authority (BTEA) and Beyon Al Dana Amphitheatre. From July 2 to August 5, 2026, the event will be held in Exhibition World Bahrain.
Bahrain Summer Toy Festival returns with new attractions, live shows and ‘The Haunted House’!
Expanded spaces and new interactive shows making their Bahrain debuts, such as “The Haunted House,” a live theatrical production that runs from July 15–18, 2026, add a new level of suspense and excitement to the festival program. This year’s event is the biggest and most thrilling yet, building on the success of the previous two editions.
“This year’s edition features new attractions, entertainment, and memorable experiences for families of all ages,” stated Sarah Ahmed Buhejji, CEO of BTEA. The festival is a component of our continuous endeavors to enhance Bahrain’s tourism offerings and offer a variety of experiences to citizens, locals, and tourists from throughout the Gulf Cooperation Council, all while boosting summertime tourism.
“The Bahrain Summer Toy Festival has grown to be one of the Kingdom’s most popular family gatherings, bolstering Bahrain’s standing as the region’s top family entertainment destination and expanding the variety of experiences accessible to tourists,” she continued.
Four themed “Lands,” each geared at a distinct age group, form the foundation of the festival. While Teen and Adults Land transports guests to the worlds of Poppy Playtime, PUBG, and Sherlock Holmes, Brave Land brings the worlds of Pac-Man and Hot Wheels to life. While Twinkle Land transports families to the realms of Mickey Mouse, Disney Princesses, and Lilo & Stitch, Little Explorers Land offers engaging educational experiences with Blippi and Baby Shark.
