Mall of the Emirates, City Centre Mirdif and City Centre Deira are calling on members of the community to come together to celebrate UAE National Day with a selection of artful tributes to the Emirates’ achievements, culture, history and future vision.

Visitors to Mall of the Emirates can feast their eyes on an interactive exhibit in the Central Galleria showcasing the UAE’s most memorable moments captured in photograph -charting the nation’s history. The stand also features the opportunity to share your own images with others through social media that can be displayed on the stand through an interactive screen by using the #OurNationsStory.

On December 5, The Theatre — located at level 2 at Mall of the Emirates — will also be transformed into a special space dedicated to talented local artists who will serenade visiting friends and families with songs capturing the UAE’s history and heritage. Big Hass, the Saudi musician and radio personality, will MC the event.

In collaboration with Akaas Visual arts, City Centre Mirdif has already hosted local artists, providing them the opportunity to reimagine the City Centre brand’s famous “C”. Working together with the artists the City Centre Brand helped them to realise their vision, in the artistic medium of their choice, drawing from their personal inspirations and interpretations of their love for the UAE.

At City Centre Deira, the celebrations will be enlivened by a visually attractive booth that is inspired by the mission to Mars and the journey of the UAE along with family-friendly workshops and activities designed to provide truly immersive Emirati experiences for mall visitors. These activities include arts & crafts and taking pictures with a real falcon. There will also be live shows including an Arabian parade featuring professional performers.
