Overview
The Heart of Sharjah Heritage Area is a uniquely preserved and restored historic district that brings to life the authentic cultural, social and architectural fabric of Sharjah as it would have been in the 1950s. With its narrow alleys, traditional souqs, merchant houses and old-town atmosphere, the venue offers event organisers an atmospheric backdrop that combines heritage character with accessible modern facilities. The blend of coral-stone walls, teak wood doors, wind-towers and Arabesque details together create an immersive sense of place which is rare for large-scale event-hosting environments.
The venue is laid out across multiple interconnected zones: open courtyards, historic houses, traditional markets (Souq Al Arsah, Souq Al Shanasiyah) and heritage-minded galleries and pedestrian walkways. Materials used throughout emphasise authenticity: coral stone, gypsum plaster, teak and mango wood ceilings, barasti (palm-frond) roofing structures, and a palette of sandy, muted tones. Lighting in the evenings is soft and ambient—highlighting textures of the heritage fabric, creating warm atmospheres in courtyards and alleys, ideal for receptions, gala dinners and cultural performances. In total, the Heart of Sharjah presents a flexible and evocative setting cultural events, combining heritage charm with event-suitable infrastructure.
