The competition is part of the Hatta Festival, in collaboration with the Hamdan International Photography Award (HIPA), to celebrate Dubai’s popular mountain hotspot. Visitors are invited to capture Hatta’s landscapes, activities and tourist spots. The best photo and video reel can win Dh10,000, Dh7,000 and Dh3,0000. “The contest forms part of our efforts to harness the power of visual storytelling to drive positive change and highlight the beauty, heritage and rich history of Hatta,” said Ali Bin Thalith, Secretary General of HIPA. Shaima Al Suwaidi, Director of Brand Dubai, said the competition is open until December 31. Particpants must capture a photo or video, and then post it on their personal Instagram account. They should also follow both @HIPAAE and @BrandDubai accounts and use #Hattafestival_HIPA to tag the HIPA and Brand Dubai accounts in their Instagram post. There is no limit on the number of submissions. Video reels must be between 30-60 seconds. Participants can also repost a previous photo or video on their accounts using the above hashtag.
