The Ramadan Arcade: A gamer festival is descending on Manarat Al Saadiyat this month

The festival runs for two weekends over April.

Calling all gamers, it’s time to show off your gaming skills in public as The Ramadan Arcade returns to Manarat Al Saadiyat for Ramadan 2022.

Offering up a series of games from tabletop games to PlayStation tournaments, gamers from all generations will have a chance to compete over two exciting weekends as one of Abu Dhabi’s premier arts centres transforms itself into a gaming zone.

Switching on the consoles over two weekends this month; Thursday 14 to Sunday 17 April and Thursday 21 to Sunday 24 April; the Ramadan Arcade will see the likes of classic arcade games, VR games and a special FIFA tournament where you can score some cool prizes (hopefully lots of goals) played out.

 

 

Priced at AED 40 per day or AED 200 for all eight days, there will also be daily art studio workshops to enjoy.

But if doing battle on Call of Duty isn’t your thing, Manarat Al Saadiyat still has tons to do including checking out the 67-million-year-old T-rex, Stan, or travelling back to the ‘90s to a simpler time with Zemanna.
