From Abu Dhabi to Tokyo: The Rage Festival Reimagined

Whisk away to the Japanese capital

Word on the street is that Abu Dhabiโ€™s favourite family-friendly festival is back โ€” and itโ€™s bringing a taste of Tokyo to the capital. The Rage returns with a brand-new theme: We Meet in Tokyo. From 7 to 11 January, Umm Al Emarat Park will transform into a vibrant hub of culture, craft, creation, and community.

For years, The Rage Festival has been one of Abu Dhabiโ€™s go-to weekend escapes. Last yearโ€™s edition at Al Maryah Islandโ€™s South Plaza drew thousands of visitors, and this year promises to be just as spectacular. From interactive installations and workshops to live performances, there is something for everyone โ€” whether youโ€™re a foodie, art enthusiast, or simply looking for a unique outing with family and friends.
