Brand Dubai, the creative arm of the Government of Dubai Media Office, has unveiled a new visual tribute to the UAE’s Founding Fathers along the Dubai Metro Red Line.

The installation features images of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and the late Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum, along with verses from a poem by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.

Launched in cooperation with the RTA as part of Dubai’s ‘National Month’ celebrations and the #ZayedAndRashid campaign, the display stretches from Centrepoint to Expo 2020 station, reaching thousands of commuters each day.

The Metro tribute is one of several National Month activations, which also include the Flag Garden at Umm Suqeim Beach, a large artwork on DIFC’s Gate Building, and cultural events running throughout November until December 2.
