His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik, the Supreme Commander, today graced the Fleet Parade 2025, within the context of the Sultanate of Oman’s celebration of the Glorious National Day.
Upon its approach to the parade area adjacent to Al Qurum Beach, the Royal Yacht was honoured with a 21-gun salute, fired from the Royal Navy of Oman’s vessel Shabab Oman II, for His Majesty the Supreme Commander.
In celebration of this glorious occasion, coinciding with the nation’s National Day festivities, a series of accompanying events were held on Al Qurum Beach. The celebrations featured immersive technological displays, including interactive screens and laser shows projected from the participating vessels, complemented by dynamic lighting and sound technologies.
The programme also included musical pieces from the Band of the Royal Navy of Oman, traditional Omani songs performed by folk and scout troupes, a participation by the Oman Kite Team, and a grand fireworks display.
The Royal Navy of Oman also organised an exhibition with the participation of several entities and departments. It highlighted the Navy’s national tasks, roles, and its ongoing modernisation and development, while also featuring equipment, devices, and the most prominent innovations and modern technologies currently in use.
