Angry Birds World, Qatar’s largest indoor and outdoor family destination, held a special awareness event, in cooperation with Qatar Cancer Society (QCS), which aims to raise awareness about Breast Cancer. The widely-loved flock welcomed members and breast cancer survivors from QCS along with some of the city’s leading bloggers for a day of endless fun and enlightenment at the nest.

The intimate event brought together cancer survivors and influencers for a friendly competition, under the theme of breast cancer. Teams were pitted against one another in a series of intriguing challenges, with the flock’s pink bird ‘Stella’ crowning the winning team. The event also celebrated the valiant spirit of survivors, as they shed light on the importance of early detection.

Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer, accounting for 39 percent of cancer cases in women in Qatar. About 248 new cases of malignant breast cancer were diagnosed in 2015, out of which 242 were females and 6 were males.

The park injected just the right amount of fun and excitement, to make the fight against cancer a truly memorable one. Guests were immersed in a thrilling experience, filled with games and laughter, that ultimately focused on the importance of periodic examination for early diagnosis of breast cancer and spreading the culture of a healthy lifestyle as a preventative measure.

Introduced by Trimoo, in partnership with Rovio Entertainment, the world’s first Angry Birds World is located in Doha Festival City. The 17,000 sq.m park, comprising an indoor space of 6,500 sq.m is teeming with thrill, transforming the classic bird-flinging game into a cluster of high-octane attractions that is designed for every member of the family.

ANGRY BIRDS WORLD™ constitutes one of the four major entertainment parks set to open at Qatar’s highly sought after mall. Upon completion, the unique entertainment destination will be home to – SNOW DUNES™ – the country’s first indoor snow park set in an ancient Arabian village; VIRTUOCiTY™ – the region’s first digital and eSports gaming park; and JUNIVERSE™ – the world's first city in space that aims to inspire and entertain children.
