The UAE is preparing for a vibrant November 2025, when it will host significant international events to highlight its expanding role in culture, innovation, business, and tourism. From Abu Dhabi and Dubai to Al Ain and Sharjah, the country will welcome leaders, creators, and professionals from all over the world.
The Sheikh Zayed Festival, held in Al Wathba from November 1, 2025, to March 22, 2026, would honour Emirati principles of unity, coexistence, and cultural pride. Literary enthusiasts will gather at the Al Ain Book Festival from November 24 to 30, while the 44th Sharjah International Book Fair from November 5 to 16 will bring together over 2,300 publishers from 118 nations.
Economic and business events will help to boost the UAE’s global profile. ADIPEC 2025 is expected to attract over 200,000 people, while the Ras Al Khaimah Investment Summit and The Big 5 Global will promote trade, innovation, and sustainability in construction.
Dubai will become a knowledge hub with ICOM Dubai 2025 and the Dubai Airshow, which will focus on aerospace, AI, and advanced mobility. Youth leadership will also shine at the 31st Arab Scout Conference in Abu Dhabi, cementing the UAE’s position as a centre for global collaboration and forward-thinking growth.
