This event blended Emirati heritage with entertainment and fast-paced experiences, attracting motorsport and motorcycle enthusiasts, nature lovers, culture seekers and families alike.

And that wasn't all, as we also enjoyed camping under the twinkling stars, live music, theater performances, local food trucks; In addition to pottery, henna and Emirati cultural performances. This further confirms that the Liwa Festival activities are full of something suitable for all ages.

This hill, which is more than 300 meters high, is considered one of the tallest sand dunes in the world. It is certainly, as you would expect, a favorite destination for thrill-seekers . This is what actually happened at the Liwa Festival, where a variety of events were held at Moreeb Dune, such as the “Moreeb Dune Champion” competition, in which some of the most famous professionals and enthusiasts participated, to experience an exceptional and unforgettable adventure in Sand Dune Drag Racing.
One of the main attractions of this year's Liwa Festival was its hosting of the Monster Jam races, exciting races that featured monster trucks of 5 tons and over competing head-to-head in a series of different competitions.
