Sharjah24: Dibba Al-Hisn Municipality has completed all preparations to welcome Eid Al-Adha, having developed a comprehensive operational plan to ensure the delivery of top-quality services for residents and visitors alike during the holiday. The aim is to safeguard public health and safety. The municipal abattoir has been upgraded to increase its capacity and ensure the slaughter of sacrificial animals is conducted in full compliance with health and safety standards.

Various municipal departments have continued their operational efforts, endorsed by the Director of the Municipality, which include festive decorations across the city, inspection plans for public beaches and parks, and intensive inspection rounds at shops, markets, health and food establishments, men's barbershops, and women’s salons to ensure adherence to hygiene regulations.

Market operating hours

The abattoir will be open on the Day of Arafah and throughout Eid from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM, under full veterinary supervision.

The city’s fish, vegetable, fruit, meat, and poultry markets will operate from 8:00 AM to 11:00 PM during Eid. The fish market will also open from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM.

To minimise crowding and ensure public safety, the municipality’s website offers a unique “online slaughter booking” service, allowing residents to schedule their sacrifices easily and efficiently.

The municipality also warned against dealing with unlicensed mobile butchers due to health risks and the lack of veterinary inspection. It continues to sterilise and clean the abattoir and markets throughout the day as part of its commitment to quality public services over the holiday.

Eid Prayer area prepared

The municipality has intensified preparations for the Eid prayer ground, ensuring it is fully equipped with all necessary service, technical, and engineering facilities to accommodate worshippers comfortably during the holiday.

City decorations

Municipal teams have finalised all decorative arrangements, adorning streets, public squares, and major intersections with geometric shapes, ornamental pillars, and illuminated structures featuring festive greetings such as “Eid Mubarak” and “Wishing You a Blessed Eid,” to spread joy among residents and visitors.

A festive and joyful atmosphere

His Excellency Talib Abdullah Al Yahyai, Director of Dibba Al-Hisn Municipality, extended his heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to the UAE’s leadership, citizens, and residents on the occasion of Eid Al-Adha. He affirmed that the municipality’s teams have completed all necessary preparations to ensure a safe, welcoming environment for residents and visitors to enjoy a joyful and family-friendly holiday experience.
