Things To Do
This Venetian inspired mall has something for everyone – from fashionistas to children, to foodies.
A shopping and entertainment centre, Villaggio mall sits within Aspire Zone, and contrasts the sporty offerings therein with pure decadence. From budget to luxury, there are options aplenty. Clothing to jewellery, quick bites to leisurely meals, movies or theme parks, Villaggio is a one-stop family (though maybe not wallet) friendly destination.
Villagio Mall is easily accessible via car or a taxi (Uber is widely used, alternatively Karwa or Careem). Parking spaces are available. The distance from Hamad International Airport is approximately 30 minutes.
The mall can be reached by metro (Gold Line, Al-Aziziyah Station).
An indoor canal complete with gondolas takes shoppers along one wing of the mall, depositing them right by Via Domo – a high end high street with every luxury lovers favourite brand names. Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci and Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Bulgari and Cartier, are just some of the brands found along the rich gold decked hallways of Via Domo.
A range of cafes and restaurants meet a variety of dietary - and budgetary – needs. Bringing the kids? There’s plenty of entertainment, starting with a gondola ride, to the Gondolania theme park. Located within the mall, this indoor park contains a bowling alley, laser tag, roller glider, rollercoaster, as well as a go kart track. It also has an only Olympic sized ice rink, and is the largest in Doha to be accredited by the Ice Skating Institute Asia. Gondolania also has a 4D theatre, with seats that respond to onscreen motion, and special effects such as air blasts, water sprays, neck and leg ticklers and vibrating seats.
For a less immersive movie experience, head to the mall itself, which has an IMAX cinema. Here, viewers can enjoy the latest screenings from the comfort of plush seats. Catering to all visitor needs, the mall provides a plethora of extra services including complimentary high speed WiFi to ensure constant connectivity, VIP valet parking, porter services so you can shop without dropping, and wheelchair services.
For all your luxury shopping wants, Via Domo within Villaggio is the most sought-after destination for top line brands.
Adjacent to Villaggio Mall, Aspire Park contains running and walking tracks, playgrounds for children, and a café. The complex caters to all sporting needs - from hosting major events to training camps, conferences, research as well as injury diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation. It is also home to Khalifa International Stadium, one of the venues hosting matches during FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.
