UAE National Day: Mega event to feature Dubai Bling’s DJ Bliss, grand fireworks, supercar show

There is plenty more on offer for visitors, including a performance by Emirati star Fayez Al Saeed, and the chance to win flight tickets to a destination of their choice

The UAE's 51st National Day is just around the corner, and Dubai is pulling out all the stops to make sure this long weekend is among the most memorable yet. From December 1-5, Dubai Festival City Mall is setting the scene for major celebrations for the entire family to enjoy.

Throughout this period, visitors can expect roaming entertainment across the mall and outside at the vibrant Festival Bay. Dressed in patriotic attire, guests will witness marching drumming bands, traditional Al Ayala dancers, and can enjoy a cup of warm Emirati coffee for free. Additionally, let little ones take home a lovely flag or two in the nation’s colours or enjoy the themed roaming entertainment inside the mall and on Festival Bay.

On December 3, the Dubai Police Marching Band will put on a celebratory performance at Festival Bay where visitors can also watch the majestic police horses parade down with national flags. Well known for their jaw-dropping supercars, the Police will also showcase some of their amazing cars at Festival Bay as part of the National Day festivities.

Continuing the celebrations is Emirati star Fayez Al Saeed, the popular singer and composer with over 1.9 million followers on Instagram, who will take the stage at the centre of Festival Bay to put on a 60-minute live performance from 8-9pm. Infusing even more magic to this concert is the 'Imagine' show, which will create a spectacular backdrop with lasers, lights, and fountains dancing to the music.
