Art Basel announced a partnership with Qatar Sports Investments (QSI) and QC+ to launch Art Basel Qatar in Doha in February 2026, marking the first major international art fair in the Middle East. The inaugural edition will feature a tightly curated selection of approximately 50 galleries, significantly smaller than Art Basel's other fairs, and will be held at M7, a creative hub in the Doha Design District. A director for the fair will be announced in the coming months.

On Tuesday, Israel carried out a missile strike in Doha, Qatar, targeting senior Hamas leaders, with explosions reported in the Leqtaifiya neighborhood and smoke visible over the Katara cultural district. The strike comes as a shock to Qatar, which has built a reputation for stability and is home to major art institutions operated by Qatar Museums, including Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art, the National Museum of Qatar, and the Museum of Islamic Art. Art Basel, which announced in May a partnership with Qatar Sports Investments and QC+ to launch Art Basel Doha in February 2026, said it is closely monitoring developments and remains committed to the fair's inaugural edition.
