Mina, RAK Properties’ master-planned waterfront community, will host the inaugural ‘Motion of the Mina’ festival from January 9–25, bringing family-friendly fun to Ras Al Khaimah.

Fans can meet beloved characters from Cartoon Network (Ben 10, The Powerpuff Girls), Nickelodeon (Dora, PAW Patrol, SpongeBob SquarePants), and Spacetoon (CoComelon’s JJ and Cody).

The festival will transform Lagoon Walk @ Mina with interactive zones, live shows, food, creativity, and photo opportunities with favourite characters.

Adding an educational twist, the popular ‘The Science Street’ team will host a live show featuring fun experiments and games.

The festival aims to strengthen community life, encourage connections between residents and visitors, and support Mina’s long-term development in line with RAK Vision 2030.

This first edition complements Mina’s ongoing events calendar, including the RIPE Market and collaborations with RAK Art, positioning Mina as a vibrant waterfront destination for families and visitors alike.

Sameh Muhtadi, Chief Executive Officer of RAK Properties, said: "The ‘Motion of the Mina’ festival is set to bring some of the biggest, most popular and most exciting names in children’s entertainment to Mina and Ras Al Khaimah for the very first time. The biggest family event of the year, the festival promises great entertainment, food, games and more each day. As the emirate’s leading developer, RAK Properties is committed to creating communities where residents and their families can put down roots, grow and thrive over generations. A chance for families from Mina, Ras Al Khaimah and further afield to come together and meet some of the world’s most popular cartoon characters, this event is a true celebration of community that will perfectly showcase the rich vibrancy of life in our emirate." -TradeArabia News Service
