Dubai has opened its National Month, a series of celebrations organised by Brand Dubai, the creative arm of the Dubai Government Media Office. It begins on 3 November and leads up to the UAE's 55th Eid Al Etihad, with Flag Day festivities, the Flag Garden, a UAE Parade and a short film competition among the named initiatives.
Organisers say specific dates and venues will be released through the month. Residents and visitors can expect a growing programme across the emirate, so it is worth checking for updates as National Day approaches.
