Aloha Abu Dhabi, the city’s most celebrated beach festival, opened its doors on March 28 at Al Muneera Beach Plaza - Abu Dhabi’s first waterfront retail development at Al Raha Beach.  

Running until April 1, the festival offers an incredible array of breath-taking musical performances, amazing water sports and exciting daily activities.  

The five-day extravaganza offers live music shows featuring Vandaly band, live DJ mixes, Aloha dances, as well as harpist, saxphone and piano performances on the beach. For water-based sports lovers, the Festival features water-donut rides, inflatable water slides and wakeboarding. Exercise-enthusiasts will have the chance to enjoy yoga for all ages.

The Festival is free and open to the public as ‘Aloha’ means both ‘hello’ and ‘goodbye’ in Hawaiian, so that ‘Aloha Abu Dhabi’ reflects Al Muneera Beach Plaza’s warm and welcoming spirit. Organised by Aldar Properties (Aldar) in partnership with destination marketing specialists Wise, the festival hosts an impressive line-up of live musical entertainment, culinary and gastronomical delights plus a trendy selection of 60 fashion pop-ups, entertainment shows, food trucks, restaurant and cafes. - TradeArabia News Service
