The Emirate of Sharjah is set to launch the 35th edition of the Sharjah Ramadan Festival 2025 running from February 22 to March 31.
Organised by the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI), the festival will cover all cities and regions of the emirate, in partnership with local government entities, authorities, institutions, and the private sector. Shopping centres and commercial stores throughout Sharjah will also play an important role in the event’s wide participation.
Considered one of the country’s significant social and economic events, the festival aligns with the Year of Community, aiming to celebrate and preserve Emirati heritage while strengthening bonds within families and the broader community.
The event will feature a range of heritage, historical, artistic, and religious activities that highlight the spiritual significance of the holy month of Ramadan while engaging residents and visitors. It also aims to strengthen social cohesion, promote cultural exchange, and create an atmosphere of tolerance.
The festival will extend to the central and eastern regions of the emirate, offering a unique shopping experience with major promotional offers and discounts on popular brands and products.
In addition to shopping incentives, the festival will feature entertainment activities designed to enhance the festive atmosphere throughout Ramadan.
Shoppers will also have the chance to win valuable prizes offered by participating shopping centres and retail stores, making the festival a notable occasion for both residents and visitors.
His Excellency Mohammed Ahmed Amin Al Awadi, SCCI’s Director-General, emphasised that the Sharjah Ramadan Festival is one of the chamber’s significant initiatives, having been a part of Sharjah’s annual calendar for over three decades.
“The festival continues to support the retail sector, a key part of the emirate’s economic activity, while also boosting the tourism industry and supporting the business community,” Al Awadi said.
Abdul Aziz Al Shamsi, Assistant Director-General for Communication and Business Sector at SCCI, noted that the Sharjah Ramadan Festival is one of the most awaited marketing events during the holy month. He stressed that the Chamber is committed to ensuring that each edition provides meaningful and memorable experiences for Sharjah’s residents and visitors.
The festival will also feature the Ramadan Nights at Expo Centre Sharjah, a key attraction that annually draws over 150,000 visitors and hosts more than 200 exhibitors, including major retailers and international and local brands.
This year, the festival promises a dynamic Ramadan experience, offering a mix of cultural and entertainment activities designed for families. Alongside these attractions, shoppers will have the opportunity to engage in interactive experiences, from prize draws and giveaways to exclusive discounts on popular brands, ensuring a festive atmosphere throughout the month.
