Salman Khan to host IIFA 2022 in Abu Dhabi

The International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) on Tuesday introduced its twenty second version of IIFA Weekend and Awards will probably be held on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, on March 18 and 19, 2022. Superstar Salman Khan will host IIFA 2022 at Yas Island’s state-of-the-art indoor leisure venue Etihad Arena.
It will probably be held in collaboration with the Department of Culture and Tourism, Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi), and Miral, Abu Dhabi’s main curator of magnetic experiences, a press launch from IIFA said. “Commemorating the 75th year of India’s independence and the UAE’s year-long Golden Jubilee celebrations, marking its 50th anniversary, the highly anticipated 22nd edition of IIFA will showcase a grand celebration of Indian cinema’s finest talent, bringing together global dignitaries, international media, fans and film enthusiasts from across the world,” it added.
Khan stated the most recent version of IIFA will probably be a grand celebration at one among his favorite locations. “It will probably be a fair larger celebration as we rejoice the seventy fifth 12 months of India’s independence and UAE’s fiftieth Anniversary-Golden Jubilee celebration.

“Over the last 21 years, IIFA has not only given Indian Cinema an international platform, but it has created a wonderful opportunity to take us to our fans and connect millions of people globally,” the celebrity stated in a press release.
Saood Abdulaziz Al Hosani, Undersecretary of DCT Abu Dhabi, stated internet hosting the IIFA Awards underlines the “key strategic position” the Indian market occupies for the emirate.
“In addition, we have now loved an ideal bond with India’s film trade, that has for a few years been interested in the UAE capital by our high-quality infrastructure, so the addition of the IIFA to Abu Dhabi’s calendar of occasions aligns completely with our 5-year technique to develop the cultural and inventive industries.
“Hosting an event such as this also demonstrates the UAE capital’s appeal for attracting internationally-renowned entertainment, and the confidence organizers have in the emirate’s superior facilities, expertise and stringent health and safety protocols,” Al Hosani stated in a press release.
Mohamed Abdalla Al Zaabi, CEO of Miral, stated it’s an honour for Abu Dhabi to host the IIFA Weekend and Awards.
“Hosting this much anticipated event reinforces Yas Island’s position as a top global destination for leisure, entertainment and business and Abu Dhabi’s place on the world tourism and entertainment map.”
Continuing their partnership for the seventh consecutive version of IIFA, NEXA will probably be collaborating with Miral and DCT Abu Dhabi for the star-studded occasion.
