Dubai has unveiled the 12th edition of its Flag Garden at Jumeirah Beach, Umm Suqeim 2, as part of the emirate’s annual ‘National Month’ celebrations.
The installation forms a central feature of the #ZayedAndRashid campaign, highlighting the legacy of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and the late Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum.
This year’s Flag Garden presents 11,000 UAE flags arranged into large-scale artistic portraits of the two leaders, covering a display of 60 metres in height and 90 metres in width. The installation celebrates national unity and loyalty while honouring the vision of the UAE’s Founding Fathers.
Shaima Al Suwaidi, Director of Brand Dubai, described the Flag Garden as “one of Dubai’s most prominent national events, bringing together art, creativity, and deep national symbolism.” She emphasized that the installation serves as a tribute to the leadership and the nation’s enduring values of unity and belonging.
The display will be open to the public from 3 November 2025, coinciding with UAE Flag Day, until 10 January 2026. Mahra Alyouha, member of the organising committee, noted that the garden has become a “national icon and a prominent tourist attraction,” drawing citizens, residents, and visitors eager to experience its visual and patriotic appeal.
The Flag Garden forms part of Dubai’s broader ‘National Month’ campaign, launched by His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum and organised by Brand Dubai. The campaign coordinates city-wide activities from UAE Flag Day to the 54th Eid Al Etihad, highlighting the emirate’s festive spirit and celebrating the achievements and legacy of the nation’s founding leaders.
Visitors are encouraged to share their experiences on social media using the hashtags #UAEFlagGarden and #ZayedAndRashid.
