Authorities across the UAE have announced free public parking during the Eid Al Adha holiday as part of nationwide measures to ease travel and support residents during the long break.
The temporary exemptions apply across major emirates, including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and Ajman. Multi-story parking facilities in most emirates, however, will continue operating under normal paid tariffs.
