What to do and where to stay this Eid Al Adha
Take a break with family and friends and enjoy the very best Dubai has to offer this Eid Al Adha
Known as ‘The Festival of Sacrifice’, Eid Al Adha is one of two major Islamic festivals held each year. The event marks a special time in the Islamic calendar traditionally celebrated with family and friends, and with promotions and events planned across Dubai, it is also one of the best times of the year to enjoy everything the city has to offer.
Free fireworks presentations
Kids will love the choreographed fireworks, water, laser and light display being staged every night during Eid Al Adha at the popular Dubai Festival City Mall. Shows will be staged at 8pm and 10pm nightly and are free for all to enjoy. Situated on the waterfront and boasting some of the city’s most popular restaurants, it’s the perfect location to enjoy a meal with family and friends while taking in the fireworks display over Dubai Creek.
Aquaventure discounts
One of Dubai’s most popular waterparks, Aquaventure at Atlantis The Palm, has introduced a new two-day ticket option that is priced at AED290 for kids and AED350 for adults. The ticket, which doesn’t have to be used over consecutive days, represents almost a 50% discount on the price of two single day tickets purchased during the summer months. The two-day ticket includes complimentary access to the Lost Chambers Aquarium, a visit to a shark feeding show and unlimited rides on the park’s popular Wave Rider surf machine.
Visit The Green Planet
Dubai’s spectacular indoor tropical rainforest is offering a summer pass for UAE residents, providing unlimited access to the incredible biodome attraction until 30 September. The pass also entitles holders to 20% discounts at The Green Planet Café and gift shop, and 20% off the price of entry when purchasing four additional tickets for friends or family.
One of Dubai’s newest attractions, The Green Planet is home to more than 3,000 species of plants, animals and birds – including the world’s tallest artificial tree – making it a sanctuary for exotic flora and fauna protected from Dubai’s extreme summer climate. Situated in the heartofone of Dubai’s most popular lifestyle and shopping districts, City Walk, it’s the perfect place to escape the heat and chill out after enjoying some retail therapy or grabbing a bite to eat.
