We intend to continue organizing more unique events to provide our customers and the general public with one-of-a-kind and memorable offerings that carry the Al Hilal brand of innovation and excellence. We congratulate the proud new owners who will be rolling out their vehicles from our show area and invite the residents of Dubai to check out our automobile bonanza,” said Mohamed Zaqout, Head of Personal Banking, Al Hilal Bank.

Among the festive activities lined up are acrobatic ‘PYRA’ performances, daily car and bike shows, musical performances from the Ayyala/Harbya band, and a spectacular ‘Light Cube Show.’ Inflatable castles, Go-kart racing, XBOX gaming, and cartoon drawing sessions, among others, will delight young guests as well.
