Citizens of Saudi Arabia living in the UAE will feel right at home when they celebrate this year’s KSA National Day in Dubai on September 23. 

 

To mark the festivities, the city’s most iconic and world famous landmarks will light up in the colours of the Saudi flag, and Dubai’s best loved destinations will host great family-friendly events until September 26.

 

With so many Saudi nationals living in the UAE, particularly in Dubai, and with the close ties that exist between the two nations, Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment (DFRE) has created a wonderful mini festival to celebrate the day, with the 200+ nationalities that call Dubai home invited to take part in the fun.

 

To help mark the occasion and encourage the community to get involved, a captivating 35-second video has been created by Dubai Tourism to showcase the close ties between the UAE’s citizens and residents and the bonds they share with their neighbours from Saudi Arabia. Filled with families and friends enjoying special moments, the video’s theme is one of celebration, joy and togetherness with traditional folk dancing, laser shows and smiles helping to spread the message of ‘KSA and UAE Together Forever’ (https://we.tl/t-vVXlS1cOVb or https://we.tl/t-Vp5uifixaB) 

 

The Burj Khalifa will display a congratulatory message to mark the occasion, with the Saudi flag projected onto the world’s tallest building. The Dubai Frame in Zabeel Park and the Burj Al Arab Hotel in Jumeirah will also host extra special displays to commemorate the event.

 

Shoppers and families visiting Dubai Festival City Mall will be wowed by the spectacular IMAGINE Show on September 23. The stunning light and fountains show will entertain residents and visitors as part of the mall’s fun-packed calendar of events.  – TradeArabia News Service
