UAE National Day: Here's how to watch 'Seeds of the Union' show

The UAE's official 49th National Day spectacular "Seeds of the Union" show will be broadcast live from Abu Dhabi at 6:15 pm on December 2.

Organisers say Abu Dhabi TV, Dubai TV, Dubai One (English) and Mathrubhumi (Malayalam) along with several other channels will air the 40-minute event.

The show will take the form of a moving sculpture surrounded by sea and illuminated by visuals portraying themes inspired by the UAE's history and values.

In addition, viewers will be able to stream the show for free online via the National Day YouTube channel, its official website and social media channels including Facebook and Instagram on @OfficialUAEND.

Seeds of the Union will also screen special shows for free at selected VOX Cinema theatres in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and Dubai.

Inspired by the show, landmark buildings across the UAE have been lit up in the country’s colours and mesmerising illuminations in observance of the national occasion.

Dubai's Burj Khalifa, the headquarters of ADNOC, Abu Dhabi Global Market, and Al Ain City Municipality along with Marina Mall, Khalifa University, and the W Abu Dhabi - Yas Island are all displaying the red, black, white and green colours along with illustrations and bright displays and artworks.

The 828-metre high facade of Burj Khalifa is featuring an illuminated LED screen that guides people to the platforms and channels broadcasting the show.
