Get Street-wise this EidFest Abu Dhabi

Seven Abu Dhabi malls will come alive with dynamic shows by 21 internationally-renowned street performers during EidFest Abu Dhabi from October 15-17.

Top Argentinian, Spanish, English, Scottish, Dutch, American, Canadian and Australian performers will be in Abu Dhabi for the first time for 40-minute shows at Al Ain Mall and Bawadi Mall in the Oasis City, as well as the UAE capital’s Marina Mall, Abu Dhabi Mall, Mushrif Mall, Dalma Mall and The Galleria at Sowwah Square.

There’ll also be performances on two purpose-built stages on Abu Dhabi Corniche. Passers-by can have their hands painted with henna or watch traditional ayala dancing at the festival’s Eid Market and Heritage Zone.
