Sharjah, July 6, 2021:  The Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI) said that the fifth edition of the Al Dhaid Dates Festival will take place from 22 to 25 July at the Al Dhaid Expo Center. The event is supported by His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah. This came during the coordination meeting of the organizing committee, headed by HE Abdullah Sultan Al Owais, Chairman, SCCI.

Abdullah Sultan Al Owais stressed that the festival is considered one of the most prominent events taking place in the central region of the Emirate of Sharjah and one of the most important economic events the SCCI is keen to organize and develop annually. He added that Al Dhaid Dates Festival is of special importance in supporting the development process in the eastern and central regions of the Emirate of Sharjah, by strengthening Al Dhaid’s position in the agricultural wealth sector and cementing its status in the palm cultivation field.


Al Owais emphasized the importance of supporting the owners and farmers of date palm trees, developing dates-based local industries, and raising the quality of Emirati products, calling on all the concerned parties to join hands in order to organize a distinguished edition commensurate with the importance and status of the event among similar economic and heritage events that take place in the country.


 He also highlighted the importance of putting forward creative and innovative ideas that contribute to the development of the event in the current and upcoming editions.

He pointed out that the festival will include diverse categories and worthy prizes dedicated to the participants in the competitions.
The Organizing Committee will be holding a press conference to reveal the date and details of the fifth edition of the festival. The event is expected to include interactive contests to encourage the public to take part in the event.
