United Arab Emirates celebrates Golden Jubilee

The UAE is currently enjoying a four-day public holiday commemorating the country’s historic Golden Jubilee, with National Day on 2 December marking 50 years since the Emirates were founded.

Celebrations will begin with Commemoration Day today, prompting a number of festivities and special events to acknowledge the landmark anniversary.

More than half of UAE residents are expected to take a domestic vacation during this period – the majority of whom have indicated that Dubai will be their destination of choice.

As a result, the public and private sectors have temporarily halted their operations from today. Khansaheb Sykes and Andrews Sykes Climate Rental will be back open for business on Sunday 5 December.

We would like to wish our customers, partners and staff a very happy and relaxing break and hope that you enjoy celebrating the occasion whichever way you choose.
