Brand Dubai, known for its creative initiatives, has teamed up with the Hamdan International Photography Award, or HIPA, for a special competition.
This competition is part of the first-ever Hatta Festival, a big celebration filled with art, culture, sports, and family fun, all set in the beautiful mountain area of Dubai.
This competition is called the ‘Most Beautiful Photo and Video Reel in Hatta’ contest. Visitors to the Hatta Festival are encouraged to capture their special family moments and the stunning scenery of the region, which includes various activities and tourist spots. The idea is to use photos and videos to tell the story of Hatta’s beauty and rich history.
Ali bin Thalith from HIPA mentioned how these competitions are great for photographers. They get a chance to win prizes, show their skills, and become more known. For the organizers, it’s a way to gather a collection of beautiful images. HIPA aims to support photographers and create a unique collection of pictures.
Shaima Al Suwaidi, who leads Brand Dubai, shared her excitement about the collaboration with HIPA. She said this contest is a great way for both professional and amateur photographers to show off Hatta’s beauty through their own creative perspectives.
It’s also a chance for visitors to share their experiences of Hatta. The competition is open until December 31st, the same day the festival ends, and there are cash prizes for the best photo and video reel.
Anyone can take part in this contest. You just need to take a photo or video, post it on your Instagram, follow @HIPAAE and @BrandDubai, and use the hashtag #Hattafestival_HIPA. There’s no limit on the number of photos you can submit, and video reels should be 30-60 seconds long.
The Hatta Festival itself is a must-visit, open every day with different timings on weekdays and weekends. It’s a showcase of Hatta’s culture, history, and natural beauty, with plenty of activities for families and kids, like musical shows, light displays, and sports events.
