Expo City hosts concert by Firdaus Women’s Orchestra as part of UAE National Day celebrations

Shaima Al Suwaidi, Director of Brand Dubai and manager of the National Month campaign, said the musical work, composed by national talent Mohammed Al Ahmad, stands as a tribute to the founding fathers and their lasting legacy.

She said the performance reflects the UAE’s monumental achievements and the spirit of places such as Expo City Dubai, which embody the nation’s determination to transform ambition into reality.

Al Suwaidi added that the partnership between Brand Dubai and Expo City Dubai has played a key role in celebrating important national occasions. Events held under the National Month umbrella, especially the Zayed and Rashid campaign, aim to deepen the community’s sense of belonging and highlight the gratitude owed to the founders who established the nation’s path to development and progress.

Amina Taher, a member of the campaign’s organising committee, said the collaboration with the Firdaus Orchestra and the decision to stage the performance at the House of Arts reflects Dubai’s commitment to preserving cultural identity.

She noted that the performance aligns with the principles on which the UAE was founded and showcases Dubai’s link to authentic Emirati traditions.

The Firdaus Women’s Orchestra, known for its powerful performances during Expo 2020 Dubai, will reunite its musicians for this special occasion. Their return promises an evening steeped in national pride, artistic excellence, and cultural storytelling.
