Since its inception in 1998, Muscat Festival has proved to be more than just a celebratory, cultural and artistic event, or merely an entertaining forum in which civilizations come together, involving multilingual activities. The Festival which started January 23^rd 2014 and lasted one month, buzzed with live performances, shows, concerts, international exhibitions and creative workshops. Naseem Garden is one of the 2 major locations of Muscat Festival, the other being Amerat Park. During this festive month, UNFPA and Y-Peer supported the Ministry of Health in raising awareness on HIV/ AIDS and providing information to visitors particularly youth on transmission and prevention modes. Y-PEERs used fun, active and participatory techniques to draw the attention of people to their stand and thus be able to give more explanation.

Y-PEER was present at the Muscat festival in 2008 for the first time and has been taking part since to sensitize the public on different issues related to road safety, reproductive health, environment, drugs and HIV/ AIDS.
