Dubai Metro services will run two extra hours on Sunday (August 10) to cater to visitors of the Emirates Loves Pakistan celebration at Expo City Dubai, the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) announced. The extended hours mean the Dubai Metro will operate until 2am on Monday (August 11), instead of the usual midnight closure. Additional taxis will also be deployed around the venue to ensure smooth transport for attendees. The Jashn Azaadi Pakistan celebration — marking Pakistan’s Independence Day — is free of charge, but visitors must pre-register. Organizers expect it to be the largest gathering of Pakistanis in the UAE this year. ICA/Expat Media
