Dubai, UAE (May 2024): Rixos Premium Dubai, a stylish urban hotspot in the heart of Dubai's Jumeirah Beach Residence, is pleased to announce its collaboration with Dubai Autism Center (DAC). The hotel, known for its dedication to supporting communities and fostering a positive impact, will be the Digital Awareness Partner of DAC throughout 2024, aiming to further spread awareness about autism.

Recognising the significance of this worthy cause, Rixos Premium Dubai was delighted to be part of this campaign. The hotel actively engaged in activities and events to support DAC’s campaign, with the highlight being a birthday celebration on April 30th for DAC’s children, providing delicious cakes, and creating a joyful and supportive atmosphere. Rixos Premium Dubai aims to continue spreading awareness about Autism Spectrum Disorders as DAC’s Digital Awareness Partner for 2024, leveraging its digital platforms to amplify the message of autism awareness and inclusion. 

Throughout this year, Rixos Premium Dubai will organise monthly initiatives and activities to celebrate inclusivity and community empowerment, which includes hosting birthday celebrations on the 30th of each month. The hotel will further expand these initiatives by hosting entertainment programmes, organising small games, and giving away prizes for the kids, ensuring a fun and enriching experience for everyone involved.
