Al Owais stressed that the festival will invigorate the tourism sector, thereby bolstering the broader business community.

He highlighted the event’s social significance, pointing out how its entertainment and heritage events create a special ambiance for Ramadan, spreading joy among Sharjah’s residents and visitors, and fostering social and cultural engagement.
