Ramadan Ads | Middle East | 2020

Ramadan is a month of spirituality, downtime, and is also an eventful period for the ad world – similar to a month-long Super Bowl extravaganza.

Ramadan ad spots present an opportunity for advertisers and consumers to enjoy the most coveted advertising efforts of the year, for the ads usually focus more on the themes of the holy month than the individual product itself.

We haven’t seen that many Ramadan ads from across the Middle East this year, may be due to the coronavirus pandemic. Nonetheless, here’s a glimpse of the campaigns that did release, keeping the tradition alive.

No matter how much the world changes around us, our Ramadan values and traditions always remain. Our family gatherings, the food we love, Ramadan decorations, the TV shows we all wait for & the shared value of giving during this holy month to keep us together and bring us closer. Ramadan Careem ??✨ . . العالم يتغير حولنا كل يوم , لكن لذّة رمضان تكتمل بقيمنا وعاداتنا وتقاليدنا التي تعودنا عليها . تجمعاتنا العائلية ، صوت المدفع الذي يجمع الكل على سفرة الطعام ، زينة رمضان المبهجة، البرامج التلفزيونية و المسلسلات التي ننتظرها جميعًا وأهمية العطاء المتبادل بين الجميع خلال هذا الشهر المبارك. لتبقينا سويا و تقربنا أكثر. رمضان كريم ??✨
