Brand Dubai<\/a>, the creative arm of the Government of Dubai Media Office, has announced the launch of the second edition of the \u2018Dubai\u2019s Best Decorated Ramadan Homes\u2019 competition, as part of the \u2018Ramadan in Dubai\u2019 campaign. The competition is organised in collaboration with Emarat Al Youm.<\/p>\n

Now in its second year, the competition calls on residents across Dubai to reimagine their homes as radiant expressions of the spirit of Ramadan. Participants are invited to transform their fa\u00e7ades into captivating illuminated displays that honour the values of the Holy Month.<\/p>\n

A total of 15 cash prizes will be awarded. The first-place winner will receive AED100,000; second place AED 80,000; third place AED60,000; fourth place AED40,000; and fifth place AED20,000. Ten additional winners will each receive AED10,000.<\/p>\n

Shaima Al Suwaidi, Director of Brand Dubai, said the competition reflects the city\u2019s unique ability to blend heritage with contemporary creativity, turning a social custom into a shared civic moment. \u201cRamadan has always been a time when homes open their doors and hearts to family, friends and neighbours,\u201d she said. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to see that spirit expressed visually across the city through light, design and creativity inspired by Emirati traditions.<\/p>\n

\u201cHome decoration during the Holy Month is deeply connected to hospitality and community. What makes this initiative meaningful is how it extends that personal expression beyond the household. One illuminated fa\u00e7ade encourages another. Entire streets begin to be decorated. Together, these individual gestures create a unified celebration, one that captures both the authenticity of our traditions and the creative energy that characterises Dubai today.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ibrahim Shukrallah, Editor-in-Chief of Emarat Al Youm, said: \u201cWe\u2019re proud to collaborate with Brand Dubai on the second edition of this initiative, which brings media and community together in a meaningful way. We see our role as going beyond reporting the news to supporting initiatives that strengthen cultural identity and encourage positive community participation. \u2018Dubai\u2019s Best Decorated Ramadan Homes\u2019 is not only about beautifully illuminated fa\u00e7ades. It also reflects the family spirit, generosity and sense of togetherness that define the Holy Month. We\u2019re pleased to support a competition that invites people to express the essence of the month in their own way, shaping the ambience of the city with their creativity.\u201d<\/p>\n

He noted that Emarat Al Youm will spotlight participating homes, capturing their displays to showcase Dubai\u2019s Ramadan spirit.<\/p>\n

Sara Merdas, Member of the Organising Committee of \u2018Dubai\u2019s Best Decorated Ramadan Homes\u2019 competition, said the initiative is designed to maximise participation and community involvement. \u201cWe are extending an open invitation to residents across Dubai to create warm, welcoming neighbourhood spaces during Ramadan,\u201d she said. \u201cBy transforming home fa\u00e7ades into distinctive light displays, families can contribute to a collective atmosphere that reflects the spirit of the Holy Month. Community participation is central to this initiative, and every decorated home adds to the shared experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

Entries must come from homes located within the emirate of Dubai. Decorations must focus on front fa\u00e7ades using lighting and decorative elements. Participants are required to document their decorations in a creatively filmed video highlighting themes associated with the \u2018Year of Family.\u2019 The video must be uploaded to the participant\u2019s public Instagram account using the hashtag #Dubai_Best_Decorated_Ramadan_Homes_2026 and tagging @branddubai.<\/p>\n

The deadline for submissions is 11 March 2026.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
