Dubai Stars’ walk of fame to salute 10,000 celebrities

DUBAI: Downtown Dubai will be home to more than 400, as Emaar has announced that it will launch ‘Dubai Stars,’ a walkable tribute to stars and influencers from all over the world, along Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard in Downtown Dubai.

Dubai Stars, a walk of fame saluting stars and influencers from all over the world, will kick off with a global social campaign asking people from all over the world to nominate their favourite celebrities and influencers for the first 400 stars to be featured at Dubai Stars.

The first phase of Dubai Stars will be unveiled in October at a mega event to be attended by the 400 featured celebrities who will launch their respective star.

Dubai Stars will pay tribute to eminent personalities who have positively influenced the world through their work in various fields including music, film, art, architecture, sports, and literature as well as social influencers. Dubai Stars at its completion will have over 10,000 stars, about four times the number of stars than Hollywood walk of Fame.

Commenting on the project, Ahmad Al Matrooshi, Managing Director of Emaar Properties, said, "Emaar takes pride in ensuring the best lifestyle experience for both residents and visitors to Dubai. With Dubai Stars we are further highlighting our commitment to making Dubai the best city in the world, and to promoting arts, culture and sports by saluting the stars, whose contributions continue to inspire the world."

Dubai Stars by Emaar is billed to become one of the most-visited tourist attractions that will appeal to guests from around the world for the diversity of celebrities to be featured.
