UAE residents can look forward to three more holidays – all of which fall on November 30, to mark UAE Commemoration Day and the UAE National Day celebrations on December 1 and 2.
National Day is the UAE’s formal nationalisation, which took place with the six emirates in Dubai in 1971. Ras Al Khaimah officially joined in 1972.
Along with paid holidays for the private and public sector, the occasion usually means big fireworks displays across the nation.
