Qasr Al Watan will be hosting National Day celebrations and unveiling new attractions. For the first time ever, the cultural centre will be hosting a National Day celebration on December 1. Starting at 1pm, you can watch a parade of horses, cyclists and the Abu Dhabi Police band. After the procession inside the great hall, a traditional Emirati dance performance will be held at 4pm as well as a performance from Emirati singer Ahmad Al Mansoori. The UAE colours will also be projected onto the landmark as the sun sets. Plus, when you’re there you can also check out the The Gallery, a digital photo exhibition that highlights important moments from the Year of Tolerance, including the Papal visit and the Speical Olympics World Games Abu Dhabi. Two new sculptures have also been added to the attraction’s gardens the Power of Words, which feature cage-like three dimensional figures surrounded by quotes from Sheikh Zayed. Finally, two new dining outlets have opened at Qasr Al Watan including Al Dhiyafat restaurant and Al Fowala lounge, which offer a range of food and drinks when you visit the attraction. It sounds like it’s going to be a lot of fun.
