Members of the public are invited to enjoy a musical programme featuring Al-Samra Al-Shabwania - a mix of performing arts including an ensemble of musicians, poetry, singing and folk dance. A cocktail of Yemeni folk songs will be performed by male and female singers from the Yemeni community, calling for the unity of Yemen. The event will also feature Yemeni men and women’s fashion shows, showcasing traditional wear from different regions of the country. An exhibition of drawings for children, by a group of talented Yemeni children from the local community will be displayed in the waiting area before the show.
