Celebrate Centuries of Emirati Heritage and Identity

A rich cultural celebration awaits you at the Qasr Al Hosn Festival 2016. The festival is packed with a diverse programme inspired by two themes: Abu Dhabi’s traditional heritage, which is epitomised by the iconic Qasr Al Hosn and its surrounding areas, and the importance of the modern heritage of Abu Dhabi showcased in the Cultural Foundation Building.

Composed of grouped activities that share a commonality and complement each other, the programmes encourage you to take part in the rich interactive and thematic experiences.

The Festival presents the history of Qasr Al Hosn to be experienced through a series of curated programmes including Fort tours, Qasr Al Hosn Exhibition, traditional performances, poetry, children’s activities, family workshops, demonstrations and enchanting shows at the Festival Stage.
