Why are we coming together? 🇫🇯

Because Fiji Day is about more than a date on the calendar.

It’s a chance to come together as vuvale, to celebrate our independence, honour our heritage, embrace the many cultures that make Fiji home, and share that spirit with the next generation. 🌺

And this year, we’re celebrating with a purpose.

Our Fiji Bula Vuvale 2026 celebration will also support Desert Fijians Rugby (DFR) and Desert Fijians Netters (DFN) as they prepare to represent our community at the Dubai 7s. 🏉

So when we gather on 10 October, we’re not only coming together to celebrate where we come from, we’re coming together to support our own.

🇫🇯 One People. Many Cultures. One Vuvale.

What a night for the Desert Fijians Rugby & Desert Fijians Netters family 🇫🇯

An evening filled with pride, purpose, and unity as we presented our 2025 jerseys to the teams that carry our colours, our culture, and our community with heart. From the opening acknowledgments to the final presentation, tonight was more than a ceremony, it was a celebration of identity, vision, and the collective strength of our players, families, and supporters.

Vinaka vakalevu to His Excellency Mr. Siddiq Koya, Fiji’s Ambassador to the UAE, for joining us as Guest of Honour and delivering a powerful word of encouragement, and for assuring us of the Embassy’s continued support. Vinaka also to the Fiji Embassy for your ongoing encouragement and appreciation.

A special acknowledgment to our players who continue to show discipline, commitment, and pride every time they put on the jersey/uniforms and to our coaching staff, management and players families whose leadership, sacrifice, and dedication keep pushing DFR and DFN to new heights.

Much appreciation to our wider Fijian community for standing with DFR and DFN and supporting our journey both on and off the field.

One more day to Dubai Sevens — let’s go DFR & DFN! 🙌🏾
