Al Majaz Waterfront, one of Sharjah’s premiere leisure and hospitality destinations, has announced a packed programme of fun activities for this year’s Eid Al Fitr celebrations. The entertainment includes roaming singers, acrobats, drummers and illusionists during a five hour programme from 4pm to 9pm on each of the festival’s three days.

The eight-strong troupe of acrobats, singers and entertainers will perform four sets per night lasting thirty minutes, as will the ‘hang drum’ artist, 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 cafés and restaurants.

Marwa Obaid Al Shamsi, Manager of 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.”
