Organisers say Abu Dhabi TV, Dubai TV, Dubai One (English) and Mathrubhumi (Malayalam) along with several other channels will air the 40-minute event.

The show will take the form of a moving sculpture surrounded by sea and illuminated by visuals portraying themes inspired by the UAE's history and values.

Seeds of the Union will also screen special shows for free at selected VOX Cinema theatres in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and Dubai.

Inspired by the show, landmark buildings across the UAE have been lit up in the country’s colours and mesmerising illuminations in observance of the national occasion.

Dubai's Burj Khalifa, the headquarters of ADNOC, Abu Dhabi Global Market, and Al Ain City Municipality along with Marina Mall, Khalifa University, and the W Abu Dhabi - Yas Island are all displaying the red, black, white and green colours along with illustrations and bright displays and artworks.

The 828-metre high facade of Burj Khalifa is featuring an illuminated LED screen that guides people to the platforms and channels broadcasting the show.
