The UAE Airforce's aerobatic display team, Al Fursan, painted the skies with the colours of the UAE flag, as the country marked the 10th annual Flag Day on Thursday. A photo shared by the Government of Dubai Media Office showed the jets whizzing past the Mohammed Bin Rashid Library.
A video of the Flag Garden was shared by Dubai Crown Prince Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. Featuring 4,000 UAE flags arranged to create the portrait of the President, His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the garden honours his ambitious vision and contributions to the UAE’s development.
The ninth edition of Flag Garden organised by Brand Dubai at Kite Beach in Jumeirah, celebrates Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed’s accession to office as President of the UAE. The Flag Garden will remain open to visitors until December 15. Visitors can share photos and their experiences on social media using #UAEFlagDay.
The Dubai Media Council, Government of Dubai Media Office (GDMO), Dubai Media Incorporated (DMI), Dubai Press Club (DPC) and Brand Dubai, the creative arm of GDMO, celebrated the day at Flag Garden.
The UAE Flag Day is celebrated nationally on November 3 in response to the call from His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
