Where to see fireworks in Dubai for Eid Al Etihad 2024
In celebration of Eid Al Etihad, also known as Union Day and National Day – there will be fireworks across Dubai…
If you’re wondering where to see fireworks in Dubai this December, then take note – as there will be several fireworks displays in Dubai for Eid Al Etihad. Formerly known as Union Day and UAE National Day, Eid Al Etihad is the new official name for the final public holiday of the year.
There will be a two-day holiday to mark the occasion on Monday December 2 and Tuesday December 3, making it a four-day weekend for those that have Saturday and Sunday off. And to celebrate Eid Al Etihad, which this year marks 53 years since the emirates were united, Dubai will host an array of festivals, special events and experiences – including fireworks.
If you want to see the Eid Al Etihad fireworks in Dubai, you’ll be able to catch them on Sunday December 1, Monday December 2 and Tuesday December 3, taking place in four locations: JBR Beach, Al Seef, Hatta and Dubai Festival City Mall. On December 1, Bluewaters Island and The Beach, JBR will light up at 8pm. On December 2, Hatta skies will sparkle at 8pm, followed by Dubai Festival City Mall at 9.10pm. The mesmerising burst of colour and excitement will conclude on December 3 at Al Seef at 9pm.
At Riverland at Dubai Parks & Resorts, there will be two fireworks displays at 7pm and 9.30pm on Sunday December 1 and Monday December 2 to mark Eid Al Etihad.
You’ll also be able to see fireworks in Dubai at Global Village. As well as the two regular shows on Friday November 29 and Saturday November 30, there will be daily fireworks for Eid Al Etihad right through until December 3.
The fireworks in Dubai are just one of a number of celebrations we can look forward to, as part of month-long festivities under the #ZayedAndRashid campaign, announced by Brand Dubai. Taking place between UAE Flag Day (November 3) and Eid Al Etihad (December 2) the calendar will feature flag gardens, fireworks, festivals, concerts and parades.
