A tribute to Arabic culture at 360°

Immerse yourself in the realms of 'One Thousand and One Nights' as we come together to celebrate the rich tapestry of Arabic culture at World International Arabic Language Day — the day when the UN adopted Arabic as the sixth official language of the Organization.

On December 17, we invite you to experience the legendary stories of Scheherazade like never before — through the blend of captivating narration, evocative piano tunes, and stunning 360° art.

Witness these cherished tales come to life in all their glory, as the piano performance of Rimsky Korsakov's 'Scheherazade' mirrors their essence.

Together with 360° Arabic scripts acting as a bridge from the past to the present — this is going to be one for the books, indeed!
