Sharjah is getting colourful! And this is not only visible in the vibrant variety of festivals and events it's hosting but also on its website. The Sharjah Media Centre on Monday unveiled a new logo and official website for Sharjah Events, www.sharjahevents.ae. The website is dedicated to Sharjah's busy calendar of events and highlights the colourful diversity of the numerous socio-cultural activities, festivals, exhibitions and initiatives throughout the year.
Bringing together all of Sharjah's festivals, exhibitions, activities and initiatives at a single platform, Sharjah Events also works with and supports local organisers of events, helping and encouraging the public and private sector players to promote their activities.
The portal, developed and run by SMC, classifies events into seven different categories, namely Family, Sports, Business, Education, Culture, Heritage, and Art. It gives its registered users access to a variety of services and applications, in addition to offering them the opportunity to create their own pages.
Under the guidance of His Highness Dr Shaikh Sultan bin Mohammed bin Sultan Al Qasimi, Crown Prince and Deputy Ruler of Sharjah, Sharjah Events, the new official website has been launched to serve as a ready reference tool to update the public about various important events and activities taking place in the emirate throughout the year. Shaikh Sultan bin Ahmed Al Qasimi, Chairman of Sharjah Media Centre (SMC) unveiled the official logo and website of the Sharjah calendar at a Press conference.
Shaikh Sultan bin Ahmed Al Qasimi emphasised that Sharjah Events puts the emirate in the spotlight and offers a holistic view of Sharjah's exciting calendar of events, upcoming activities and all major attractions at a glance, arranging them according to their dates and a set of criteria.
Latest information about all activities is added and revised by government departments and private entities as and when required, in order to help the public.
The website is constantly updated to help visitors get an easy perspective of all the notable activities and happenings in Sharjah. Government entities and private institutions have been grouped under one umbrella, providing users with the latest and most accurate information and updates about various events and developments in the emirate.
