The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has informed Dubai residents of expected delays on Jumeirah Street, from Union House to Burj Al Arab, on 2 December 2025, between 4:00 and 5:30 PM, due to the “Al Etihad Parade”.

The gathering point for the parade is Dubai Maritime City at 3pm. The procession will run along Jumeirah Road from the Union House intersection to the Burj Al Arab intersection from 4pm to 5:30pm, offering a vibrant showcase of national pride and community spirit.

Over 30 volunteers from the Community Development Authority will help bring the event to life, handing out more than 1,000 UAE flags to attendees.

The parade is organised by Brand Dubai, the creative arm of the Government of Dubai Media Office, in collaboration with the Events Security Committee in Dubai, to mark the 54th Eid Al Etihad.

It's also part of the 'National Month' campaign, launched by Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Second Deputy Ruler of Dubai and Chairman of the Dubai Media Council.

Drivers are advised to plan their trips in advance and follow traffic signs for a smooth journey.

Another spectacular parade is set to return, as residents and visitors witness magnificent horses marching through City Walk during the annual Eid Al Etihad Parade, held in collaboration with Dubai Police.

Taking place on December 1 at 4 PM, the iconic march will feature over 1,000 participants from Dubai Police, KHDA students, and other government entities.
