This event was introduced by the organizing committee of the National Day celebrations as part of the activities for the National Day of 2019. The event is held in partnership between the Ministry of Culture and Sports, the Qatar Cultural and Heritage Events Center, and the Qatar Poetry Center "Diwan al-Arab". The event is targeting the traditianl poets (Nabatie), the classical poets and the free verse poetry within the State of Qatar to root for the essence of poetry, and in search of a new horizon for writing poetry in which freedom of poetic speech depicts human dignity and the right to express human feelings and his role in the rebirth of his homeland. The event is in the form of a poetic competition between the Nabatean or the local dialect poets of citizens and residents in Qatar. The competition extends over 4 stages, and will allow the poetry audience to interact with the poets and their poems directly through traditional media or through social media platforms.
