Al Jazirah Al Hamra Heritage Village

Located south of Ras Al Khaimah city, Al Jazirah Al Hamra is the abandoned pearling village that will play host to the Festival’s Grand Opening on January 31st, as well as its Friday events and workshops. The coastal settlement was vacated in 1968 and has remained largely unchanged since. It now stands as part of Ras Al Khaimah’s cultural heritage and breathes a unique life and character into the Ras Al Khaimah Fine Arts Festival.
