Five-day Hatta Honey Festival to be held at the Hatta Community Centre from Dec 27

Hatta Honey Festival supports traditional beekeeping and is one of the region’s oldest and most popular crafts. It will be a five-day festival that will be held from December 27-3 at the Hatta Community Centre where experts and professional beekeepers will share knowledge and know-how on honey production and explore innovative ways to improve its quality. More than 50 beekeepers from across the country will participate in the festival.

Hatta has established itself as one of Dubai’s top tourist attractions. Activities offered by the region are a key focus of the ongoing #Dubai Destinations winter campaign, implemented by Brand Dubai, the creative arm of the Government of Dubai Media Office. The region is renowned for producing the finest quality of honey.

The festival’s seventh edition will feature the families’ market, a children’s play area, and a honey sample inspection corner, in addition to distributing valuable gifts to the guests. The event will provide visitors with the opportunity to learn about different varieties of honey and the characteristics of each. Previous editions of this festival attracted a significant audience. The campaign also spotlights Hatta’s exceptional recreational facilities, luxury resorts and diverse adventure activities, such as camping, cycling, hiking and swimming.

The Hatta Mountain Conservation Reserve, home to many rare birds and animals, is a highlight in the #DubaiDestinations winter campaign. The festival coincides with the second edition of the Hatta Cultural Nights, which will be held from December 21 to January 1, 2023 and celebrate Emirati heritage, folklore, music, and poetry.
