The story
Sharjah Heritage Days in Sharjah
Sharjah Heritage Days runs roughly twelve days each February at the Heart of Sharjah, bringing artisans from 27 countries for over 1,170 performances, 265-plus artisans demonstrating 40 traditional crafts, more than 300 workshops, a dedicated Children's Village, and craft demonstrations like hand-prepared luqaimat inside a traditional arisha, opening with a Bedouin camel caravan and falconry display.
Artisans from 27 countries perform 1,173 recorded performances across a twelve-day run, a density of cultural programming that makes Sharjah Heritage Days function closer to a full heritage exposition than a single-site festival.
