Following in the steps of its neighboring emirate Dubai, Abu Dhabi is on its way to position itself as one of the beacons of culture in the region, keen on being perceived as not only the capital of the UAE but also as a capital of all things music, art, and fashion in the Arab World and beyond.
Following this week’s announcement of the city’s inaugural biennale launching in November 2024, more exciting news has been unveiled.. Marking an exciting debut in the history of the Middle East, Abu Dhabi will soon be welcoming the region’s first-ever neo-cultural festival: a five-day-long celebration of underground talent, inviting up and coming creative minds and intrigued visitors to partake in a one-of-a-kind experience that will bring all disciplines of artistic production to one prime location.
Brought to you by Brag, an award-winning creative agency, in partnership with Abu Dhabi’s Department of Culture and Tourism, BRED Abu Dhabi aims to cast a shining light on the region’s youth while promoting the metropolis’ rich diversity by bringing people from all walks of life together to observe the unique fusion of cultures that make Abu Dhabi the vibrant and cosmopolitan city it is today.
