As another year slowly gravitates towards us all, the United
Arab Emirates will be adding another year by to its highly celebrated years
this December. Asides from the progress report of a developing country that
would be recounted, one of the highlights that people enjoy recounting would be
the colourful and thunderous fireworks. These fireworks have been identified as
one of the traditions of this epoch-making event.
When is the UAE celebrating its anniversary?
As a tradition of growth and a worthy reason for
celebration, the people of the UAE celebrate the anniversary of their beloved
country on December, 2nd every year. This national day celebration is usually
called Al-Eid Al Watani, which means UAE National Day. The highlights of last year's
celebration saw different sides of fun and engagement which lasted for a week.
Citizens of Dubai and its environs enjoyed a 4-day weekend
holiday from the 1st to the 4th of December to enjoy the maximum celebration
without any consideration of barriers or restrictions.
The previous year's edition had the jubilation linger
between the 2nd “ 11th of December, 2021.
How old will the UAE be celebrating this year?
Come December, 2nd, 2022, the UAE in her usual practice will
be celebrating another year of existence as a country for the 7 constituting
Emirates. This year, the UAE will be 51 years as a developing country in the
middle east.
Note that the emirates had before now existed independently,
but now as a country, the UAE stands to unify the energy and resources from the
emirates as an independent global icon to achieve landmark development to
revolutionize their quota as a leading name leaving honourable trails in the
sands of mankind.
Where are the spots in the UAE where fireworks are expected during the celebrations?
Just like a kid to the news of a lollipop, citizens of the
UAE have been used to Fireworks and their locations. Just last year, the UAE
had fireworks display in six main locations where they showcased the fireworks.
These venues were The Pointe, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Festival City Mall, The
Beach, opposite JBR, Atlantis, The Palm Ain Dubai, Blue waters Island, and La
Mer, respectively.
While there are many things to look out for in 2022 in the
UAE, certainly the location for the fireworks for this year 2022 is one of
them, and in all sincerity, we are not yet certain about the location at the
time of writing this post.
What was the highlight of the 50th celebration?
The events were greeted with thunderous sounds and thrills
from the fireworks at the six notable points that were surrounded by a mammoth
crowd looking almost like a festival or concert. Aside from the happy faces and
the song of celebration on everyone's lips, the event was held at the perfect
location in Hatta Dam where people were able to conveniently surround the
mountains without any hiccups.
The event was streamed live for all people either within or
outside the UAE. For fun lovers who wanted to experience the sensation at Hatta
Dam, they were required to purchase a ticket for Dhs 300.00.
What should we expect in the coming UAE National day in 2022?
The government of the UAE is always one step ahead of the
citizens in creating new ways of enjoying the celebration. While some have
gotten accustomed to the declaration of holidays, I bet there are more exciting
things to come than the fireworks this year.
What we owe ourselves is to stay alive and plan because one
can rest assured that it will come with a more colourful program than last year.

Why are people looking forward to this year's 51st annual UAE national day celebration?
Looking back on last year, the country has done so much for itself than before, such that there are so many milestones covered worthy of celebration.
In not so usual manner, there will be more surprises than what anyone would bargain for this year, and this is enough reason for people to look forward to this year's celebration on come 2nd of December, 2022.
