Discount depth varies by category, seller, and the specific brand running a promotion that week, so figures above reflect typical ranges seen during the sale rather than a fixed rate across every listing.
Head to the retailer's UAE site or app and pick your gift, whether that's a bouquet, hamper, or personalised item.
Add it to your cart and go to checkout.
Look for the "Promo Code" or "Coupon Code" field on the payment page. Most UAE gifting sites place it just above the order total.
Paste your code in and apply the discount.
Check that the discount actually shows up in your total before you pay. If it doesn't apply, the code may be expired, category-restricted, or below the minimum order value.
For live codes across florists and gifting sites, have a look at our gifts and flowers coupons . It’s faster than hunting for one code per brand.
Order early in the day if you need same-day delivery. Same-day slots for flowers and hampers in Dubai and Abu Dhabi tend to fill up by early afternoon, especially right around Friendship Day itself. Morning orders have a much better shot than a 4 PM order.
Buy for your whole friend group in one order instead of separately. Florists and gifting sites often price multi-item bundles cheaper per unit than three separate single-bouquet orders, even before any coupon is applied. Check the bundle or "gift set" listings before placing individual orders.
Build your own hamper through a quick-commerce app instead of buying a pre-made one. Apps like InstaShop let you pull chocolates, snacks, and a small gift from a nearby supermarket and have it at your friend's door within the hour, usually cheaper than a curated hamper with the same contents.
Check your bank's app for a florist-specific offer before you check out. UAE banks periodically run seasonal tie-ups with flower and gifting brands, layered on top of whatever the site already offers. It takes a minute to check and can beat a generic coupon code.
Follow smaller, independent UAE florists on Instagram or WhatsApp. A number of boutique florists run codes exclusively through their WhatsApp broadcast list or Instagram Stories rather than publishing them on their website.
Choose click-and-collect for last-minute items. For a snack hamper or accessory order, pick it up yourself from a nearby Carrefour or Noon partner store. Choose click and collect to avoid rush/surge delivery fees.
Friendship Day doesn't fall on one single date everywhere, and that trips a lot of people up.
Observance | 2026 Date | What It Means for the UAE |
International Day of Friendship (UN) | Thursday, 30 July 2026 | The officially recognised UN observance, marked worldwide since 2011 |
Friendship Day (UAE convention) | Sunday, 2 August 2026 | The UAE, like India and Bangladesh, generally marks Friendship Day on the first Sunday of August rather than the UN date |
Because the UAE follows the first-Sunday-of-August convention, most gifting and flower brands here run their promotions across the stretch between the two dates rather than picking just one. Order a couple of days ahead of 2 August, so you're not panic buying your gifts.
FNP (Ferns N Petals) is one of the well-known names for Friendship Day in the UAE, with bouquets, hampers, and personalised gift bundles built specifically around the occasion. You can use bundle offers or look for FNP UAE coupon codes on our platform before you check out.
800 Flowers covers same-day flower delivery across Dubai and the wider UAE, plus add-on options like chocolates and cards for a fuller gift. Don’t want to spend a bomb on gifts? Use 800 Flowers promo codes to bring your gifting costs down.
InstaShop is the quickest route to a build-your-own gift basket, pulling snacks, drinks, and small items from a nearby store and getting them to your friend within the hour. While you won’t get ready-made hampers here, you can get ready-made InstaShop deals at GrabOn UAE.
Carrefour is worth checking if you'd rather assemble your own hamper from chocolates, snacks, and small treats than buy a pre-made one, and it works well for click-and-collect orders too. For savings on gifts and beyond, use Carrefour coupon codes to cut your shopping costs.
Noon is a solid pick for personalised gifts, accessories, and small jewellery sets that go beyond the usual flowers-and-chocolates combo. You can join the noon One and take advantage of the membership, and club them with Noon offers from GrabOn.
Amazon doesn't run a dedicated Friendship Day sale, but its catalogue includes plenty of friendship-themed picks year-round, from matching bracelets to custom mugs and personalised gift sets. Become an Amazon Prime member to get free delivery and exclusive Amazon deals that go beyond Friendship Day.
IGP is popular with the UAE's South Asian community for personalised and customised gifts shipped from India, though it doesn't run a confirmed dedicated Friendship Day sale for UAE shoppers; it is worth a look if you want something more customised.
Signature Flower UAE is a boutique Dubai florist known for made-to-order arrangements. It's worth checking their site or social pages directly around Friendship Day for any seasonal offers.
Gifts Souq covers hampers and personalised items for the UAE market, though it doesn't have a confirmed dedicated Friendship Day promotion. It works as a useful backup if your first-choice brand doesn’t work out.
UAE Flowers offers local same-day flower delivery similar to the bigger florist names, and can be a good option if your first pick is sold out closer to the date.
Floral Allure is another boutique florist worth following on social media, since smaller UAE florists like this one sometimes run codes that never make it onto a coupon aggregator.
It depends which date you're going by. The UN's International Day of Friendship falls on 30 July every year, while the UAE typically follows the same convention as India and marks it on the first Sunday of August: 2 August in 2026. If you're checking on any other date, it isn't Friendship Day yet, but most UAE gifting brands run offers across both dates anyway.
Dubai's gifting scene focuses profusely on personalised items, like an engraved mug, a monogrammed hamper, or a custom photo frame. All these options work well. Arabic coffee and dates gift sets make a nice locally flavoured option too, and if your friend already has enough physical gifts, a spa voucher or brunch booking through a UAE experience platform is usually appreciated more than another object.
Both dates are correct, just for different observances. 30 July is the UN's International Day of Friendship. The UAE, alongside India and Bangladesh, usually celebrates on the first Sunday of August instead, which lands on 2 August in 2026.
No. National Best Friends Day falls on 8 June each year, not 7 May. It's a separate, mainly US-originated observance from the UN's International Day of Friendship on 30 July and the UAE's first-Sunday-of-August date, so the two shouldn't be mixed up when you're planning around the calendar.
Yes. Every brand covered here, from FNP and 800 Flowers to Noon and Carrefour, takes orders online through their UAE site or app, with delivery available across the country. Ordering online also makes it easier to apply a coupon code and compare a few sites before you commit to one gift.
Yes. UAE-wide florists and gifting brands like FNP, 800 Flowers, and Noon deliver to Sharjah just as they do to Dubai and Abu Dhabi, and any Friendship Day offers running on their site apply regardless of which emirate you're ordering to. Delivery windows in Sharjah can run slightly behind Dubai and Abu Dhabi during high-demand days, so order a little earlier if you're not going same-day.
FNP offers same-day delivery in Dubai on most of its flower range, though slots are demand-based and tend to fill up faster right around Friendship Day itself. Ordering earlier in the day gives you a better chance at a same-day slot than placing the order in the afternoon.
Yes, and it's one of the faster options if you're putting a gift together at the last minute. InstaShop pulls items from a nearby supermarket or store, so you can build a snack-and-chocolate basket yourself and have it delivered within the hour, rather than waiting on a pre-made hamper.
