To mark holidays on the eve of Eid Al Adha in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), residents will enjoy a four-day weekend from June 15 until June 18.
If you are spending the long weekend in the UAE, don’t miss the spectacular fireworks shows lined up at popular attractions in the UAE’s Capital Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
Here’s a quick guide to locations where you can catch firework displays:
Dubai
Those visiting Dubai Parks and Resorts (DPR) are set to enjoy a stunning fireworks display but you won’t have to enter one of the site’s theme parks where tickets cost Dh295.
To catch the show, you’ll just have to be at Riverland Dubai — the area that connects DPR’s four theme parks.
Here are the details:
- Location: Riverland Dubai at Dubai Parks and Resorts
- Date: June 16 and 17
- Time: 9: 00 pm
- Entry ticket: While the fireworks show is free, one will need to pay for entry tickets to Riverland. One ticket costs Dh20 when purchased at the counter but the amount can be used to buy food and drinks. When booked online, the ticket costs Dh15 but cannot be redeemed on food and beverage.
Abu Dhabi
Those in Abu Dhabi are also in for a visual treat.
The night sky are set to come alive with a five-minute fireworks show at these locations:
- Abu Dhabi Corniche at 9: 00 on June 16
- Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium in Al Ain at 9:00 pm on June 16
- Public Park/ Madinat Zayed/Al Marfa in Al Dhafra at 9:00 pm on June 16
