EID MUBARAK

What is Eid al-Fitr?

Eid al-Fitr marks the end of fasting during the Holy Month of Ramadan. Like Ramadan, Eid is a time to be generous and to spend time with loved ones – which is why you’ll see plenty of delicious food at family gatherings. Experience Eid in Dubai, where the holiday is celebrated for three days with abundant fireworks, delicious feasts and colourful festivals.
