Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture and Heritage (ADACH) and WOMAD (World Of Music Arts & Dance) are proud to announce that the WOMAD Abu Dhabi three-day open-air festival is to be held on the evenings of Thursday 23rd, Friday 24th and Saturday 25th April on the Abu Dhabi Corniche, with an additional, special one-off concert on Friday 24th April at Al Jahili Fort in Al Ain.
WOMAD will bring a whole new cultural experience to the people of Abu Dhabi and will attract an audience from across the Middle East region and beyond, as well as offering the world an insight into the proud traditions and culture of the UAE.

“The Corniche, with its backdrop of traditional architecture juxtaposed with modern cosmopolitan towers, provides the perfect stage for ADACH and WOMAD to promote their shared vision of bringing diverse cultures and peoples closer together through the music, arts and dance of many different countries and cultures around the world.
