National Day will soon be upon us - 44th UAE National Day 2015
The United Arab Emirates was formed on December 2, 1971, when the UK’s treaty expired and the separate sheikdoms decided to form a Union. At first the UAE was a federation of six emirates- Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Umm Al Quwain, Sharjah, Fujairah and Ajman. The emirate of Ras Al Khaimah was added a year later to the UAE. To celebrate the UAE’s 44th National Day, the Government of Dubai has planned a number of activities throughout the week.
The theme, Spirit of the Union, is to remain the official theme for the UAE's upcoming 44th National Day celebrations on December 2nd. Downtown Dubai is set to host a parade on November 28, 2015 at Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard like no other.
