Brand Dubai, the creative arm of the Government of Dubai Media Office, has launched the 11th edition of its annual Flag Garden at Jumeirah Beach, Umm Suqeim 2.
Organized under the #ZayedAndRashid campaign, this year’s garden pays tribute to the UAE’s Founding Fathers, Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum, with a striking display of 11,600 UAE flags arranged to create aerial portraits of the two leaders.
Covering an area of 75 by 104 meters, the Flag Garden is the largest ever organized by Brand Dubai, symbolizing the deep respect and loyalty the people of the UAE hold for their visionary leaders.
Shaima Al Suwaidi, Director of Brand Dubai, highlighted that the garden reflects the UAE’s journey over the past 50 years, shaped by the foundational contributions of Sheikh Zayed and Sheikh Rashid.
“This year’s Flag Garden honors two national icons who played historical roles in the UAE’s development, celebrating their legacy that paved the way for the country’s progress and prosperity,”
Al Suwaidi said.
Project Manager Mahra Alyouha noted that the Flag Garden has become a popular landmark event, drawing thousands of visitors annually. The 2024 edition coincides with UAE Flag Day on November 3 and Eid Al Etihad on December 2, remaining open to citizens, residents, and tourists until January 10, 2025.
Visitors are encouraged to share their experiences using the hashtag #UAEFlagGarden, celebrating the unity and pride that this year’s Flag Garden represents.
