eid al adha 2026

The emirate’s entertainment sector is also expected to see increased holiday traffic, with Yas Island unveiling a broad range of family-focused attractions throughout Eid

From heritage-inspired promenades and waterfront destinations to neighbourhood centres and major lifestyle hubs, each location is set to reflect the spirit of Eid Al Adha through experiences built around celebration

The move is part of Dubai Retail’s broader push to enhance visitor experiences during key holiday periods

Dubai will offer a dynamic citywide Eid programme featuring attractions, cultural experiences, retail promotions, live performances and dining experiences across the city

The developments come as religious authorities, astronomers and moon-sighting committees across the Middle East and North Africa closely monitor the skies

The attraction, operated by Dubai Holding Entertainment, had previously announced it would reopen on April 20 and said strong visitor demand prompted the extension

The anticipated date has sparked excitement across the Sultanate, as residents look forward to an extended holiday period and festive gatherings
