Basant Festival 2023 at Al Ain Sportplex Abu Dhabi

Basant is a festival that centers around the tradition of kite flying. In Pakistan, Basant was once celebrated with great enthusiasm, particularly in the Punjab region, where kite flying is a popular pastime. However, in recent years, the festival has become controversial due to concerns over the safety of kite-flying. Kite strings often contain sharp materials, such as glass or metal, which can cause serious injuries to people and animals. As a result of these concerns, the Pakistani government has banned the festival in many cities, including Lahore, which was once known for its extravagant Basant celebrations. Despite the ban, many kite flying enthusiasts have continued to celebrate Basant in other parts of the world. One such place is the United Arab Emirates, where a large number of Pakistani expatriates live. In recent years, Basant celebrations have taken place in cities such as Sharjah and Abu Dhabi. The Al Ain Sportplex in Abu Dhabi is one of the venues where Basant has been celebrated in recent times. The three-day Basant celebration at Al Ain Sportplex is a vibrant and colorful event, attended by hundreds of Pakistani expatriates and other kite flying enthusiasts. The festival includes kite flying competitions, music, dance performances, food stalls, and other activities. The event is a way for people to come together and celebrate their culture and traditions, even while living away from their homeland.
