Qasr Al Muwaiji Cultural Programmes

DATE & TIME
Qasr Al Muwaiji

DATE AND TIME

Tue, Nov 05, 2019 – Sat, May 02, 2020

 

The Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi) will be celebrating cultural diversity with special events in Al Ain until 2020.

The cultural activities will take place at Qasr Al Muwaiji Al Ain Oasis, Al Ain Palace Museum, Al Jahili Fort and beyond! The events will offer a wide array of events and activities for everyone to enjoy.

Qasr Al Muwaiji was home to generations of the Al Nahyan family, and saw the birth of Sheikh Khalifa in 1948. The UNESCO World Heritage Site functioned not only as a home and an oasis in the desert but also as a place of rule and a focus for the community. The architectural gem now offers its visitors a variety of historical and traditional experiences associated with the venue, including oral narrations of the significant moments of Sheikh Khalifa’s life from his early childhood, leadership and vast national achievements.

The recently restored property also provides the public with an insight into the chronology of the members of Abu Dhabi’s ruling family associated with Qasr Al Muwaiji and progression of the Al Nahyan Family. The museum also features interactive activities and performances that celebrate the overall spirit of the significant cultural site.
