Abu Dhabi launches first Festival of Health

The Abu Dhabi Public Health Centre (ADPHC), in collaboration with the Department of Health - Abu Dhabi (DoH), has launched the emirate's first-ever Festival of Health, a multi-week celebration designed to make healthy living fun, accessible, and part of everyday life for citizens and residents of all ages.

Anchored in four essential pillars—movement, nutrition, sleep, and mental wellbeing—the Festival creates a holistic journey toward better health. It will take place over three weekends across Abu Dhabi, Al Dhafra, and Al Ain: 12-16 December at Hudayriyat Island, 19-21 December at Madinat Zayed Park, Al Dhafra, and 26-28 December at Al Jahili Park, Al Ain.

The Festival of Health comes as one of the first initiatives supporting Abu Dhabi’s Healthy Living Strategy, recently approved by Khalid Bin Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Chairman of the Abu Dhabi Executive Council.

The Strategy sets a unified, cross-sector agenda to make healthier living easier, more accessible, and part of daily life for all.
