UAE Eid Al Etihad 2025 plans revealed: Fireworks, drone shows and a long weekend await

As the UAE prepares to mark its 54th National Day, the excitement is palpable. This year, the occasion—proudly known as Eid Al Etihad (Festival of the Union)—promises to be bigger, bolder, and more dazzling than ever. From breathtaking fireworks to cutting-edge drone displays, Abu Dhabi is set to come alive with a fusion of heritage, technology, and pure spectacle. Every year on December 2, the UAE commemorates the historic unification of the seven emirates in 1971. But this isn't just a public holiday—it's a nationwide celebration of Emirati pride, ambition, and the diverse communities that call the UAE home. This year, residents can look forward to a four-day weekend, with December 2 and 3 officially designated as public holidays. And if the holiday begins on December 1, there's even a chance of a five-day break, making it the perfect opportunity for a staycation or a quick getaway. What's in store for Eid Al Etihad 2025? While the full lineup is still under wraps, past celebrations offer a glimpse of what to expect. The main event, taking place on Tuesday, December 2, will be held at a yet-to-be-revealed iconic location—much like last year's stunning celebration at Jebel Hafeet in Al Ain, which showcased the UAE's heritage and futuristic vision. Highlights to Look Forward To: Fireworks Extravaganza: The skies over Abu Dhabi will illuminate in the national colors, with spectacular displays expected at Yas Island, the Corniche, and other key location. Drone Shows: A staple of UAE National Day, these synchronized aerial performances will likely feature even more advanced storytelling and visuals. Cultural Performances & Parades: From traditional dances to immersive heritage showcases, free public events will bring the streets of Abu Dhabi to life. Star-Studded Concerts: Previous years have featured both local and international artists. Exclusive Shopping & Dining Deals: Major discounts are expected across malls, hotels, and restaurants, particularly in hotspots like Yas Bay, Saadiyat Island, and The Galleria. Traffic Fine Discounts & Free Parking: Following last year's 50% reduction on fines in some emirates, could we see a repeat? Plus, free public parking in Abu Dhabi is highly anticipated. How to Make the Most of the Holiday With December 2 and 3 as official days off, strategic annual leave could turn this into a **nine-day break** (if taken from **December 1 to December 9**). Whether it's a luxury staycation, a desert retreat, or a road trip across the Emirates, the long weekend is the perfect time to unwind and celebrate. A Month-Long Celebration of Unity Eid Al Etihad isn't just a one-day affair—it's a month-long tribute to the UAE's journey. Buildings will be adorned in the national colors, Emirati music will fill the air, and communities will come together in a vibrant display of unity. – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram Images: Instagram & Feature Image: Instagram @queenrania
