Held under the slogan “Get set for a summer brimming with discounts and adventures”, the shopping festival, which runs until the 1st of September, witnesses extensive participation of major shopping malls, retail outlets, hotel establishments, and tourist destinations.

This year's edition of Sharjah Summer Promotions offers prizes worth up to AED 3 million and discounts of up to 75 percent on renowned local and international brands, along with a diverse selection of retail products. It also features a packed programme of 70 special entertainment activities and performances.

The festival will also mark the launch of the "Back to School" campaign, which runs from August 19 to September 1, offering significant discounts on school supplies.

HE Khalid Jasim Al Midfa, Chairman of the Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority (SCTDA), said: "Sharjah stands as one of the leading tourist destinations for visitors from the UAE and the region, renowned for its diverse eco-tourism, cultural, and adventure attractions, as well as its shopping and entertainment offerings. This new summer campaign aims to solidify Sharjah's status as a premier destination for the season. Furthermore, we aim to showcase to visitors from the UAE and beyond the exceptional summer experiences, events, and unique tourist options that Sharjah has to offer."

Al Midfa added: “The campaign responds to the global shift towards regional tourism, with Sharjah being a global example of this trend in recent years. From July to September 2019 - 2023, the UAE led in guest arrivals at its destinations during the summer season, followed by India, Oman, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia. The emirate's hotel establishments also recorded over four million guest nights. In collaboration with the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI) and different strategic partners within the emirate, we aim to further increase guest numbers, enhancing the tourism sector's role in inclusive development and economic diversification, and creating an ideal environment for business growth and investments."

HE Mohammed Ahmed Amin Al Awadi, Director-General of the Sharjah Chamber, noted that promotional offers play a crucial role in achieving a range of strategic goals that benefit Sharjah’s economy and community. By attracting a large turnout of visitors, the Sharjah Summer Promotions helps revitalise the commercial and tourism activities within the emirate.
