Abu Dhabi celebrates Eid with Unbox Amazing summer shopping offers

ABU DHABI, July 28, 2020

The Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi) has amplified its Unbox Amazing summer shopping promotion by announcing a host of limited-period shopping, hotel stay and culinary experiences to coincide with the forthcoming Eid Al Adha holiday.
 
With international travel restrictions catalysing a surge in domestic tourism this summer, UAE residents can save and win big when they shop, stay and dine in Abu Dhabi over Eid. Designed to complement the emirate’s new ‘Rediscover Abu Dhabi’ campaign, Unbox Amazing, a Retail Abu Dhabi initiative supported by Abu Dhabi Culinary Season, includes a staggering array of discounts, deals, prizes and promotions across Abu Dhabi’s world-class portfolio of malls, hotels and restaurants.
 
Abu Dhabi’s multi-faceted and destination-wide Eid celebration will unfold amid stringent health and safety measures across the emirate, as DCT Abu Dhabi’s Go Safe certification ensures safe shopping, tourism and dining experiences for the public.
 
“This year more than ever, we need a reason to celebrate, make new memories and discover fresh experiences on our doorstep,” said Ali Hassan Al Shaiba, Executive Director of Tourism and Marketing, DCT Abu Dhabi. “Across the emirate, we are incentivising residents to take advantage of an amazing schedule of Eid activities in the family-friendly Unbox Amazing campaign, from travelling the world through food right here in Abu Dhabi, unboxing amazing shopping experiences, including scores of only-in Abu Dhabi products, major rewards programs, and bumper shopping rewards and discounts.”
 
Unbox Amazing is led by a massive Shop & Win contactless promotion where Visa cardholders with Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank, Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank, Al Hilal Bank and First Abu Dhabi Bank that spend AED200 ($54.4) or more in 3,500 participating outlets automatically enter mega draws for prizes including Mercedes Benz cars from Emirates Motor Company and the latest technology products from Sharaf DG, school fees, staycation, homeware bundles and much more. In addition, the Shop & Win promotion also extends to customers using Etihad Guest Visa Payment cards linked to Unbox Amazing’s four participating banks, with 1,000,000 Etihad Guest Miles up for grabs. Shoppers can also take advantage of unbeatable brand discounts of up to 80 per cent across 21 malls participating in the summer-long Unbox Amazing promotion, which ends on August 31.
 
Elsewhere, fashion addicts can shop the season’s top looks, exclusive showcases and limited-edition pieces from over 40 international brands that are only available in participating Abu Dhabi malls and stores until August 5.
 
“To further amplify Abu Dhabi’s fast-evolving retail sector, we are collaborating with numerous international brands to enhance the entire shopping experience. Featuring exclusive only-in Abu Dhabi products and ready-to-wear items and collections covering every major fashion vertical – from jewellery, beauty and watches, to luxury and mass brands – Abu Dhabi has something to suit every shoppers’ taste and preference this Eid,” added Al Shaiba.
 
One lucky Abu Dhabi shopper also stands to win AED20,000 ($5,444.5) in mall vouchers courtesy of a massive Unbox Amazing shopping selfie competition this Eid Al Adha. To enter, shoppers simply have to follow Retail Abu Dhabi on Instagram, post a shopping selfie, and tag @RetailAbuDhabi and #RetailAbuDhabi. The winner will be announced on the Retail Abu Dhabi social media platforms later in August.
