The event, dubbed ‘Jashan-e-Azadi Pakistan,’ is expected to draw around 15,000 attendees. It will showcase Pakistan’s rich cultural heritage through traditional performances, art exhibitions, and food stalls, reflecting the deep-rooted ties between the UAE and Pakistan.

The UAE-Pakistan relationship, established by the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan in 1971, continues to flourish, highlighted by the UAE’s recent $10 billion investment in Pakistan’s economy.

The festivities will begin at 11 am and continue until 11 pm, with registration required for entry.
