Organised by the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI), this year’s festival saw wide participation of top retailers, productive families, entrepreneurs, and small business owners.
It offered discounts that go up to 75 per cent off, across a variety of products presented by exhibitors, including both local and international brands.
The 2025 edition achieved an increase in sales, generating approximately half a billion dirhams and achieving a growth rate of 25 percent compared to 2024.
It witnessed a huge influx of visitors who flocked to the major shopping centres in Sharjah, further solidifying the emirate’s position as a key shopping, entertainment, and tourism destination for diverse audiences.
The festival experienced a heightened footfall and strong momentum during the first and second days of Eid Al-Fitr, driven by strong consumer interest in entertainment, retail offers, and prize draws.
Mohammed Ahmed Amin Al Awadi, Director-General of SCCI, said: “As a key driver of the retail sector’s growth in the emirate, the festival has firmly established itself as an annual event that injects exceptional vibrancy into Sharjah’s commercial and tourism landscape during the holy month of Ramadan.
“This reflects the Chamber’s strategic vision of creating sustainable economic stimuli to bolster local business activity”.
