Salalah just gave us another reason to visit this monsoon season. The 2025 Dhofar Khareef festivities are officially on, and the spotlight’s on Ateen Square—a new hub buzzing with culture, performances, and the world’s largest inflatable amusement park.
The inflatable park is no joke
Yep, you read that right. The world’s largest inflatable amusement park just landed in Salalah, packed with bounce zones, obstacle courses, and massive slides. It's all under tight supervision, so kids can go wild safely.
Culture meets carnival
It’s not just for kids, though. The entire venue mixes Omani tradition with global flair—think Dhofar-style central stage with high-tech projections, laser shows, and waterfall effects lighting up nightly performances.
Local vibes and global acts
Right beside the inflatable madness, you’ll find Omani women selling local perfumes, clothes, and incense. There’s also an international lineup of shows, from a European carnival crew to a traditional Mexican group, all spicing up the Khareef spirit.
