The event is being held with an aim to boost shopping, family tourism and hotel sectors so as to make Sharjah an attractive destination locally and globally.
As an incentive, the festival will offer special tourist packages designed specifically for families. The SCTDA has also announced that this initiative is in line with the consistent efforts to attract over 10 million tourists by 2021. In addition to the regular events, the festival this year will feature numerous entertainment events and recreational activities that highlight Sharjah&rsquos culture and heritage.
