Dubai has launched the 13th edition of its Flag Garden, featuring nearly 10,000 UAE flags arranged to form a large-scale portrait of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.

The initiative is organised by Brand Dubai, the creative arm of the Government of Dubai Media Office, as part of the emirate’s National Month celebrations, in partnership with government, semi-government and private sector entities.

The installation, located at Jumeirah Beach in Umm Suqeim 2, measures 60 by 90 metres and covers an area of 5,400 square metres.

It will reman open to visitors until January 10, 2027.
