The Journey of the Arabian Horse

✨ Abu Dhabi Royal Equestrian Arts Unveils a Weekly Cultural Masterpiece ✨

A new chapter in cultural heritage unfolds on Jubail Island as Abu Dhabi Royal Equestrian Arts (ADREA) introduces a groundbreaking weekly performance celebrating the enduring legacy of the Arabian horse. 🌙🐎

As the first institution of its kind outside Europe—and the fifth global school of classical horsemanship—ADREA transforms centuries of tradition into living art. At the heart of this vision lies Furusiyya: Return to Origins, a mesmerising performance tracing the Arabian horse’s journey across deserts, courts and continents.

Each week, audiences witness a story that travels from the quiet sands of Arabia to the majestic royal halls of Europe, before returning home—where the bond between horse and human was first written. Through graceful movement, striking light and rhythmic choreography, the arena becomes a poetic stage where heritage is not only preserved but reimagined. ✨🎭

Beyond the arena, ADREA invites visitors to explore rich cultural spaces that deepen the experience. The Furusiyya Gallery showcases centuries of Arab horsemanship through historical artefacts and manuscripts. The Library, home to over 14,000 equestrian volumes, stands as one of the world’s largest collections. At the Atelier, artisans keep the ancient craft of saddle-making alive, shaping heritage with every stitch. 📚🛠️

Guests can also unwind at Ethr at the Library, open daily for quiet reflection. On Saturdays, Knead Bakery welcomes visitors ahead of the weekly show, with more dining concepts coming soon to enrich ADREA’s growing cultural landscape. ☕🍞

A place of artistry, heritage and awe, ADREA opens its doors to all seekers of beauty, story and connection.
