The Sharjah Summer campaign, due to last the whole summer season, kick started during the Eid holidays for the first time in Sharjah.
The Sharjah Summer campaigns details began to unfold on June 27, 2017, displaying a huge package of diverse activities and entertainment events that target children and families, along with exclusive promotions offered by government entities, hotels, malls, travel agencies and airlines. Further tantalizing details are expected to unfold during the summer season, making Sharjah a desirable family tourism destination, stakeholders promise.
The campaign, organized by a number of public and private sectors' institutions under the umbrella of Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority (SCTDA), aims to bring a comprehensive tourism experience for residents and visitors alike. With well-considered and thought-of programs, the Emirate provides distinguished quality entertainment for all family members, which makes Sharjah a major summer tourism destination at the international tourism map.
Different government entities and public sector institutions expressed remarkable interest and keenness to take part in the Sharjah Summer campaign, SCTDA Chairman Khalid Jasim Al Midfa said.
Ever since it was announced, he added, the Sharjah Summer managed to attract 28 contributors from different public and private sectors' institutions. More are expected to join during summer, he pointed out.
The campaign's vision, Al Midfa said, is to ensure residents and visitors enjoy their stay in the emirate and to attract tourism from the emirate and abroad.
Through these concerted endeavours of the public and private sectors to live up to international standards of quality tourism services, the SCTDA wants to establish Sharjah as a distinguished and quality tourism destination all over the year, he stressed.
Government entities taking part in this first-ever campaign in the emirate include: the Sharjah Government Media Bureau, Sharjah Investment and Development Authority (Shurooq), Economic Department, Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Sharjah Museums Department, Environment and Protected Areas Authority, Air Arabia, Sharjah Art Foundation, Sajaya Young Ladies of Sharjah, SHJ Airport and Sharjah Women Sport Foundation.
Government stakeholders in the Sharjah Summer Campaign seek to enhance and support the private sector's efforts to enrich the Sharjah experience of residents and visitors, thus establishing the emirate as a distinguished tourism destination.
Nurturing of Creativity
To foster cultural experiences of the emirate, the Sharjah Summer planned a bunch of educational and creative programs and workshops targeting different age groups, adults and children. People with disabilities are not left out in this attempt, Al Midfa said.
Relevant parties in the emirate are organizing summer camps and interactive picnics that include internal and external educational visits.
