Sharjah Water Festival Off To A Grand Start












HE Mohamed Ali Al Noman, Chairman, Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority emphasised that the success and popularity enjoyed by the SCTDA events and festivals over the years have added to the Authority's responsibilities, pushing it to come up with new and more outstanding events and activities year after year.

He said that the Authority is committed to making all efforts to develop and upgrade the tourism sector and services in the emirate and bolster Sharjah's unique cultural and tourism identity with strong focus on family festivals and entertainment.

The SCTDA Chairman said that the Sharjah Water Festival which fills the UAE and the region with waves of fun in December every year and attracts thousands of visitors from across the region and beyond at the peak of holiday season, has earned itself a special place in the hearts of the residents and visitors to the emirate.

Meanwhile with several popular international teams of performers and artists being roped in, Al Majaz Waterfront and Khalid Lagoon have become the centre of heart-racing action and excitement. With lots of thrills and never-before seen attractions being offered, the Water Festival is attracting a large number of families and visitors.

Al Noman said that the high point of the Sharjah Water Festival was the grand finale of the UIM F1 H20 World Powerboat Championship, the Sharjah Grand Prix, on December 18 and 19 being held by the SCTDA for the 15th consecutive years in the waters of Khalid Lagoon. The Sharjah Grand Prix sees the top world champions of Formula One Powerboat racing fight for the crown of the World Championship and the event is covered live globally by international media.
