Global Village, a fun place where families can enjoy shopping, eating, and entertainment, celebrated the UAE’s 53rd National Day, also called Eid Al Etihad, in a special way on Monday, December 2, 2024. The celebration had an amazing drone show that used 600 drones. This show was made to honor the UAE’s Founding Fathers, His Highness Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and His Highness Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum.

The event was part of the #ZayedAndRashid campaign, which is happening all over the UAE. The 15-minute show told the story of the UAE’s history, its present time, and what the future might look like. It was the most exciting part of Global Village’s celebrations for National Day and left everyone watching in awe.

The drone show started by showing how life was in the UAE before the seven emirates came together. It showed the hard life of the people in the desert and how they worked to collect pearls from the sea. This part of the story shows how strong and determined the Emirati people were in the past.

The story then moved to the big moment when the UAE was created. The drones showed pictures of the leaders of the emirates, including Sheikh Zayed and Sheikh Rashid, as they decided to join the seven emirates together to form one country. The drones created the famous picture of the Founding Fathers, which showed their dream of making the UAE a united nation. Next, the drones formed a map of the UAE in the sky and then changed into the UAE flag, showing the moment the country was born.

After this, the drones showed how the UAE has grown since then. They made pictures of the tall buildings, modern cities, and other amazing things the UAE has achieved. The show ended by looking at the future and showing how the UAE is working on making the country even better with new ideas and a focus on caring for the environment.

When the drone show was over, there was a huge fireworks display. The fireworks lit up the sky in the colors of the UAE flag and made the celebration even more special. The fireworks were bright and colorful, filling the night sky with light and joy.

This celebration at Global Village was a wonderful way to honor the UAE’s National Day. It gave everyone a chance to learn about the country’s past, enjoy its present, and think about its future. The #ZayedAndRashid drone show was not just a performance but also a beautiful way to remember how the UAE became a strong and united country. People who watched the show left feeling proud and inspired by the story of the UAE.
