A Saudi band performed traditional songs while dates, coffee, stamps and a variety of gifts were handed out to Saudi travellers.
The terminals were also decorated in Saudi colours to mark the occasion, while special signage and luggage tags were handed out at check-in counters.
In addition, the Air Traffic Control Tower will be lit up in the UAE and Saudi flag colours.
