Al Hilal Bank debuts prestigious Auto Festival in Dubai

Al Hilal Bank, a progressive Islamic bank, has announced that it will be bringing its renowned Auto Festival to Dubai from March 15 to 18, 2012 at the Jumeirah Beach Residence. The first-ever Al Hilal Dubai Auto Festival will bring together families, car enthusiasts and buyers to four days of dazzling car displays, fun family-friendly activities, and some of the best auto financing deals in the country.

The Annual Al Hilal Auto Festival has been a trademark event for Al Hilal Bank in Abu Dhabi for the past three years.  The inaugural Dubai edition will showcase around 200 cars from the country’s top car dealers which will be offered under a wide range of automobile options to form a one-stop-shop for buyers. Al Hilal Bank can finance any deal on the spot at highly competitive rates within just 60 minutes. Adding prestige to the event is a red-carpet display of classic cars that will be differentiated from other dealer stands.

True to its festival theme, the Al Hilal Dubai Auto Festival will also feature various exciting and entertaining activities such as a roaming LED-lit robot character and ‘Giant White Men,’ a ‘Light Cube Show,’ acrobatic ‘PYRA’ performances, daily car and bike shows, and numbers from the Ayyala/Harbya band. Children will be thrilled with an assortment of activities and amenities such as inflatable castles, Go-kart racing, XBOX gaming, cartoonist sessions, fair games, and balloon twisting.

“Our annual Auto Festival epitomizes our commitment to creativity and excellence. We are excited to be bringing this event over to Dubai and to offer the emirate’s residents some of the best car financing deals in the market. Buyers will be able to choose their dream car, register it and get it insured on-site. Guests, on the other hand, will be treated to a family-friendly environment where they can enjoy unique entertainment and have a memorable experience with Al Hilal Bank,” said Mohamed Zaqout, Head of Personal Banking, Al Hilal Bank.

The First Al Hilal Dubai Auto Festival is open to the public and will run daily from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m. The event reflects Al Hilal Bank’s commitment to introducing unique events and creating exceptional customer experiences.
