SHARJAH, 24 September 2026 — Al Asayl 2026 opens at Expo Al Dhaid today, bringing together suppliers, clubs and organisations connected to horses, camels and falcons. The fifth edition runs until 27 September and is expected to feature more than 80 exhibitors, according to the Emirates News Agency.

Organised by Expo Centre Sharjah with support from the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the exhibition covers products and services for animal owners, breeders and enthusiasts. Participating businesses specialise in areas such as care supplies, stable equipment, breeding and animal transport, while clubs and associations representing equestrianism, falconry, camel racing and other heritage sports are also taking part.

For visitors, the event offers a chance to see how long-standing practices sit alongside modern equipment and approaches to animal care. The organisers say the exhibition is intended both for people working in these fields and for those who want to learn more about traditions closely associated with the UAE.

Expo Centre Sharjah CEO Saif Mohammed Al Midfa said this edition places greater emphasis on interactive experiences. An educational and interactive stage programme is planned for Friday, Saturday and Sunday, giving visitors opportunities to learn more about horses, camels and falcons.
