The festival starts on November 20 and will run for 20 days in Al Wathba. Visitors will be captivated by a fusion of fascinating exhibitions, live interactions and innovative entertainment that brings to life the UAE’s rich heritage. 

Sheikh Zayed Heritage Festival 2014 will be held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE (may God protect him), with the support of His Highness General Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces and Chairman of the Abu Dhabi Executive Council; under the supervision of His Highness Sheikh Mansour Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Presidential Affairs.

His Excellency Sheikh Sultan Bin Hamdan shared some insights on the festival’s inspiration: “Our founding father, His Highness the late Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan (may his soul rest in peace), played a pivotal role in preserving the heritage of the UAE. His eternal words of wisdom remind us that a nation without a past does not have a future, because history is the gateway to the future. Today these admirable principles have been kept alive by His Highness Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, to proudly instill our values in upcoming generations.”
