Tomorrow people from all over the world will celebrate the most important annual festival the “birth anniversary of Jesus Christ” or Christmas as it is commonly known. So what about Christmas in Dubai or Dubai Christmas?

I have seen many posts on Dubai forums where people have reservations about Christmas in Dubai. Well the good news is Christmas is celebrated is Dubai with enormous fervor and enthusiasm. Hotels, shopping malls & restaurants are magnificently decorated for Christmas and New Year. The malls have elaborative Christmas displays and massive Christmas trees are gaily decorated with all the trimmings. Christmas carols fill the air and every now and then Santa Claus keeps showing up attracting large and diverse crowds.

Every year Christmas Mass is held where thousands of worshippers gathered along Oud Metha Road as they visited their respective churches in celebration of Christmas. The warmth and joy of Christmas can be felt throughout Dubai.
