As the country gears up to mark 53 years of UAE's union, holidays have been announced for government and private employees, translating into 4-day weekends for most residents, and a 5-day break for those in Sharjah.
Shopping deals, acts by acrobats, musical performances, fireworks, and a range of culinary experiences are some of the special events residents can look forward to as Dubai celebrates Eid Al Etihad from November 28 to December 3.
Dubai's eateries and cafes will serve exclusive tasting moments, limited-time promotions and special events that blend traditional Emirati flavours with global influences, paying tribute to the nation's rich heritage and dynamic culinary diversity. Emirati Eats will also bring a mix of culinary experiences to leading restaurants across the emirate.
On November 28, Jalsat Moments will include a line-up of Arab singers in a musical that will take the stage at Coca-Cola Arena, with performances by Ayed Yousef, Eida Al Menhali, Nabeel Shuail, and Abdulaziz Al-Duwaihi.
The Dubai community can watch firework shows for free at these spots from December 1 to 3:
Sales and deals on perfumes, jewellery, fashion, footwear, homeware, and apparel from different brands will be offered from November 29 to December 3. Traditional bands and family activations also await shoppers at City Centre Mirdif and Ibn Battuta Mall. A live concert by Aryam and Faisal Al Jasim will be held in Dubai Festival City Mall on December 2.
Fabric dancers, acrobats, flag bearers, and traditional bands will perform in City Walk, on December 2 from 4pm to 6pm. Over 200 performers will join the festivities, which will conclude with a special performance by Emirati singer, songwriter, and producer Mohamed Al Shehhi from 8pm to 9pm, supported by a 10-member live band.
