The party was the culmination of a month-long campaign called #Webuiltthiscity, which celebrated UAE National Day by urging everyone to instagram their favourite spots and sites in the city. The images were streamed live onto the web and 41 selected pictures were framed in plexi glass boxes and used as \"building blocks\" as part of an installation for the event. Guests partied to the tunes of DJ NJ, while enjoying traditional Emirati treats by pop-up café Klayya. The video for the s*uce-recorded song, \"We Built This City\" was also screened, as well as the #Webuiltthiscity documentary.
