Holiday Inn Dubai – Al Barsha participates in UAE National Day Tourism Awards Scheme
Celebrate National Day with art, food, fashion, culture and… falcons?
Holiday Inn Dubai – Al Barsha’s involvement in the National Day Tourism Awards Scheme highlights UAE’s way of life, history, art and delicious local delicacies.
It starts from the hotel’s facade which will be covered by the national flag and enhanced with lights befitting a nation’s birthday. The participation continues down to the entrance where hostesses in UAE’s national dress warmly welcome guests into the hotel.
The National Day theme continues in the lobby with an art and crafts exhibition that highlights Arabian culture from the perspectives of noted artists Aslam Noor and Andy Buchanan. Don’t miss out on the handicrafts by students from the Al Noor Training Center for Children with Special Needs. They will be displayed for all to admire and perhaps, purchase a piece or two to assist the centre in it’s fundraising. This handicraft exhibition is part of the Holiday Inn Dubai – Al Barsha’s widespread community efforts.
National Day is also a day to explore Arabian traditions and desert way of life. The hotel will showcase Abaya fashion and stage regular performances of traditional Qanun music. There will be an Oasis Arabic corner manned by staff in local dress, offering Kahava and dates to all guests. Stay for a while to catch the hotel’s resident FALCONER in action with his interactive and educational bird of prey shows. And don’t forget to dine on our restaurants’ traditional Arabian cuisine. After all, the fastest way to the pulse of UAE is through the stomach! A henna artist will be there too, so you can decorate yourself with attractive and imaginative designs in the traditional Arabic way.
The hotel will promote National Day events via a monthly newsletter as well as a yearly calendar with attractive monthly offers. In addition the hotel will publish an F&B booklet of culinary offerings.
