Sharjah: For this year’s Eid Al Fitr celebrations, Al Majaz Waterfront, one of Sharjah’s premier leisure and hospitality destinations, announced a packed programme of fun activities.

The entertainment will include roaming singers, acrobats, drummers and illusionists as part of a five-hour programme from 4pm to 9pm on each of the festival’s three days.

Marwa Obaid Al Shamsi, manager at Al Majaz Waterfront, said: “Eid Al Fitr is a wonderful celebration for the entire family and we are reflecting that in our entertainment and activities, bringing a wide range of live performances to cater to all ages in typical Al Majaz Waterfront style.”

The eight-strong troupe of acrobats, singers and entertainers will perform four sets per night lasting thirty minutes, as well as the ‘hang drum’ artiste, whose hand pan percussion instrument from Switzerland echoes the sounds of a full ethereal orchestra.

The illusionists will mystify the audience of all ages five times a night for 30 minutes, staging the show outside many of Al Majaz Waterfront’s favourite cafes and restaurants.

Al Majaz Waterfront is a popular leisure destination among UAE’s residents, and a key tourist attraction on Sharjah’s Khalid Lagoon. It hosts a variety of artistic and entertainment activities through the year, including film screenings, stage shows, and is considered one of the best organisers of the UAE’s New Year’s Eve fireworks
