A welcome procession will mark the beginning of the 48th UAE National Day celebrations and will be accompanied with a parade of horses, cyclists and the Abu Dhabi Police Band, ‘The Symphony of the Nation’.

Following the procession, the Palace will showcase celebratory entertainment inside the Great Hall, where the Diba Al Harbia group will put on a special show, alongside Emirati artist Ahmad Al Mansoori, who is set to perform a variety of Emirati-themed songs – including one written specially for Qasr Al Watan.

Ayalah dancers from the Diba Al Harbia group will also showcase their skills in the spirit of the National Day festivities.
