The story
Fujairah International Arts Festival in Fujairah
Fujairah International Arts Festival draws artists and art troupes from fifty-five countries each February, spanning painting, sculpture, music, theatre and traditional art forms staged deliberately at historical sites, outdoor venues and community spaces across the emirate, alongside workshops, masterclasses and panel discussions led by visiting artists and cultural experts.
Artists and art troupes from fifty-five countries converge on Fujairah for a festival that deliberately stages performances and exhibitions at historical sites, outdoor venues and community spaces rather than confining the programme to a single purpose-built arts centre, making art accessible to residents who might not otherwise seek out a formal gallery or theatre.
