Win 2 Emirates tickets every week to visit Dubai

Want to win two return tickets to Dubai? Here's your chance.

Dubai Tourism on Wednesday announced the launch of a new social media competition under the #MyDubai initiative, offering Dubai residents the chance to win two Emirates return tickets for their friends and family to visit them in the city.

The competition calls on all residents to share compelling moments in their lives that highlight the diverse culture and soul of the city. Participants can submit their entries on the MyDubai Facebook page, or simply upload to their personal Instagram and Twitter accounts by using #MyDubai and #MyInvite. The competition will select two winners each week for 15 weeks starting from October 15, 2018 to January 31, 2019.

"The passion for the emirate that exists amongst both UAE nationals and the communities of more than 200 nationalities living here is a key driver of Dubai's success. These residents take pride in posting about their experiences in the city, sharing special moments from Dubai with the world. The best advocates of a city are the people who live in it and through this campaign, we hope to encourage residents to highlight what truly lies beneath the urban and technological experiences and highlight why Dubai has maintained its position as the fourth most visited city in the world," said Issam Kazim, CEO, Dubai Corporation for Tourism and Commerce Marketing.

"What started out four years ago as a city-wide initiative to create the world's first autobiography of a city has today grown into a mammoth library of user-generated content that has allowed us to tell a unique story by capturing real-life dynamic moments that both residents and visitors experience in this remarkable destination."
