Dubai, UAE – Camelicious is inviting residents and families across the UAE to discover one of the nation’s most iconic agricultural success stories as it opens its farm to the public for the first time in celebration of World Camel Day on June 22.
The special Open Farm Day experience will offer visitors a rare behind-the-scenes look at the world’s largest and most advanced camel dairy operation, providing an opportunity to meet camels, explore the production process and experience first-hand how camel milk reaches consumers across the UAE and international markets.
Hosted at the Camelicious Farm in Dubai, the complimentary experience will include guided farm tours, camel feeding opportunities, factory viewing, camel milk tastings, signature camel milk treats and complimentary Camelicious ice cream, giving visitors an immersive insight into a product that has become synonymous with the region’s heritage while gaining growing international recognition.
The initiative forms part of Camelicious’ ongoing commitment to educating consumers about the role camels continue to play in the UAE’s culture, food security ambitions and agricultural innovation.
“World Camel Day provides an opportunity to celebrate an animal that has played an extraordinary role in the history and development of our region,” said Hesham Yehia, Acting CEO of Camelicious.
“While camels remain deeply connected to our heritage, they are also helping shape the future of sustainable nutrition and food security. We wanted to give families across the UAE the opportunity to experience that story for themselves.”
The event comes at a time when consumer interest in locally produced food continues to grow, with increasing demand for products that offer transparency, traceability and a clear connection between farm and table.
Today, Camelicious is home to almost 7,000 camels and produces approximately three million litres of camel milk annually, supplying consumers across the UAE while continuing to expand into international markets.
Visitors attending the Open Farm Day will be able to learn about modern camel dairy farming, witness the production process first-hand and gain a greater understanding of how camel milk has evolved from a traditional regional product into a globally recognised nutritional choice.
“We are proud that Camelicious has become a global ambassador for camel milk and the UAE’s agricultural innovation,” added Yehia.
“World Camel Day is the perfect opportunity to welcome our community and share that journey with them.”
The World Camel Day Open Farm Day will take place on June 22, with complimentary guided tours available through advance registration.
