Five lucky 'Metro Babies' have won a trip to Paris.

Around 200 children who were born on September 9, the same day Dubai Metro was inaugurated, gathered for a special party at Dubai Mall last night.

It was part of the Roads and Transport Authority's (RTA) celebrations to mark the tenth anniversary of the popular public transport network.

Five other children were also given a one-year free pass to amusement parks in Dubai.

Positive vibes, fun activities, and endless celebrations united the #DubaiMetro babies at the Dubai Mall Ice Rink on a special birthday bash. Watch to see what we did on this special occasion. #DubaiMetroTurns10 pic.twitter.com/fZhu8OMkRC
