Experience the true spirit of Ramadan through cultural immersion. Throughout the holy month, iconic sites across Abu Dhabi come alive with special programmes that highlight Islamic traditions, art and history.

We recommend you learn about the UAE's transformational journey at the national museum of the UAE, Zayed National Museum, located in the heart of Saadiyat Cultural District. For fascinating insights into the region and the world through an Arabian lens, visit The Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi, or spend time admiring world-class art at Louvre Abu Dhabi.

Another must-visit cultural icon is the grand Qasr Al Watan, or you can explore Emirati heritage at the Abu Dhabi Heritage Village. 

Shopping in Abu Dhabi becomes even better during Ramadan. Malls and souqs extend their hours, becoming lively social hubs late into the night.

This is the ideal time to find unique gifts, traditional sweets and beautiful home decorations. You'll notice that there are many special promotions in almost all stores throughout Ramadan and Eid. And of course, you're going to experience a festive atmosphere that is distinctly Abu Dhabi.

At its heart, Ramadan is a spiritual journey. We encourage you to witness the breathtaking beauty of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque at night, where the atmosphere is one of serenity.

The city’s respectful environment ensures that all guests, regardless of faith, can appreciate the sanctity of the month while enjoying the cultural offerings.

Abu Dhabi truly is the best place to experience Ramadan, blending deep respect for tradition with world-class hospitality.
