He added, "Dubai Properties sponsorship of the holy month of Ramadan activities held at the Club is part of our Corporate Social Responsibility in supporting activities and events that involve different members of the community and strengthens our relationship with the media."

A weekly majlis and authentic heritage nights will mark DPC's dedication to Ramadan. Exclusive events for women will also be held with the support of Dubai Ladies Club, while an 'Open Day' will invite the media and its families to an informal gathering.

Nuha Mohammed Safar, Director of Marketing & Communication at Dubai Chamber of Commerce & Industry said, "We are pleased to participate in Dubai Press Club's Ramadan Activities.

Uniquely Ramadan will be a hospitality tent on the expansive DPC terrace. Heritage nights in association with the Consulates in Dubai will showcase the customs and traditions of several countries.

A photojournalism exhibition featuring the works of talented photographers will also run throughout the month of Ramadan.
