A journey around the world, in one place.
World of Continents is a themed seasonal destination in Salalah, bringing the culture, food, crafts and energy of the world's continents together for Khareef Dhofar — with live shows, shopping, and prizes for the whole family.
Dhofar's most immersive destination this Khareef
Every year, Khareef transforms Salalah's mountains into green valleys and waterfalls. Alongside it, World of Continents brings the rest of the world to Dhofar.
Set on the Eitin Plain for the duration of the Khareef Dhofar season, World of Continents is a temporary, family-friendly destination built around a simple idea: walk from continent to continent without leaving Salalah. Each themed zone carries its own food, crafts, music and atmosphere, alongside a full calendar of live entertainment.
Expect stage performances, cash-prize competitions, shopping stalls, and cafés representing cuisines from across Asia, Africa and beyond — all wrapped into one evening out.
