About UAE National Day 2025
This Doodle celebrates National Day in the United Arab Emirates, also called Eid Al Etihad or the Festival of the Union, marking 54 years of statehood when all seven emirates united to form the UAE in 1971. Each year, a theme is chosen to represent the celebrations, and 2025’s theme is “United.”
Today, people celebrate by decorating their homes and cars with the UAE flag. The nation's progress is celebrated through a main ceremony, theatrical performances, and patriotic speeches. Drone shows trace its evolution into a global tech hub, while night brings dazzling fireworks and laser displays.
