The spirit of patriotism, art, and cultural pride came alive at the Pakistan Jashn-e-Azadi (Celebration of Freedom) Festival 2025, a two-day commemorative event in honour of Pakistan's Independence Day, held at the Pakistan Association Dubai, Oud Metha (Aug. 16-17).

Art, culture and heritage come together at Pakistan Jashn-e-Azadi festival 2025

The fest was jointly initiated by Abhi Kuch Log Baki Hain in collaboration with curator Saima Furqan, whose commitment to honouring Pakistan's heritage through art and culture is well known. The latest event once again inspired the Pakistani community and invigorated friends of Pakistan in the UAE.

The occasion combined an eclectic mix of music, poetry and visual arts, offering the audience a memorable experience. With performances, ghazals, poetry sessions and an art exhibition, it not only celebrated Pakistan's 78th Independence Day (August 14), but also highlighted the cultural bridges between Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates. The Jashn-e-Azadi Festival 2025 was marked by outstanding performances from some of Pakistan's most celebrated artists. Shafqat Amanat Ali, a renowned ghazal maestro, mesmerised the audience with soulful renditions, reminding listeners of the depth and variety of Pakistan's musical traditions.

The highlight of the entertainment segment was the presence of Imran Abbas, Pakistani actor and singer, who enjoys massive international following. Abbas delighted the audience with his songs and generous interaction with the audience. His participation elevated the festival, drawing attention to not only the stage presentations, but also the significance of cultural exchanges and unity. Adding to the charm was a mushaira (poetic symposium), where celebrated poets recited verses on the subjects of love and patriotism. Together, the poets created an environment of pride, nostalgia and festivity, that resonated with every member of the audience.
