Abu Dhabi Week Opens In Kochi Tomorrow

 Following great success in Delhi and Mumbai in 2017, the second edition of ‘Abu Dhabi Week’ is set to be hosted in Kochi and Kolkata for the first time. The event has been curated by Abu Dhabi's Department of Culture and Tourism, the body that promotes tourism and cultural heritage of the emirate.

The dual-city exhibition will start on 16th February 2018, for three-days in Kochi. The Kolkata edition will commence on 23rd February 2018. Positioning Abu Dhabi as the ultimate destination for vacations, leisure travel, and weddings, Abu Dhabi Week will offer an experiential mix of culture, art, entertainment, and sports. It will showcase Abu Dhabi and take them on a virtual tour of the city.

While 3D maps of Abu Dhabi will paint a vivid picture of the city’s urban landscape, attendees will also have a chance to win exclusive trip packages to Abu Dhabi.

This edition will also offer a wide variety of interactive experiences including life-like encounters of Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, Desert Safari, and a glimpse of Louvre Abu Dhabi.

Abu Dhabi Week will also present a live recreation of the Al Ain Palace and the Al Dhafra Region, replete with sand, Bedouin tents, safari jeeps and traditional Arabic seating and lighting.

Speaking about the Abu Dhabi Week, Mubarak Al Nuaimi, Director, Promotions and Overseas Offices, Department of Culture and Tourism - Abu Dhabi, said, "Owing to the growing levels of disposable income in the hands of Indian travellers, we believe that India is a crucial market with a potential to expand the tourism inflow in Abu Dhabi. It therefore becomes imperative to educate people about everything that Abu Dhabi has to offer, and re-shape notions regarding its cost heaviness."

"The Abu Dhabi Week strives to amplify not only the splendour of Abu Dhabi but also highlight its pocket-friendliness in terms of family vacations, solo travels, film shoots, trade and business, and destination weddings, among others," he added.
