Dubai's Global Village announces extension of Season 29
Sad to see one of your favourite destinations wrapping up for the summer? The good news is that Dubai's Global Village, one of the UAE's top family attractions, has announced a one-week extension of Season 29. Visitors can still head over to the tourist hotspot as the shopping destination extended its closing date to May 18 in an announcement on Sunday. The iconic tourist spot was previously set to close its gates on May 11. The destination will operate until May 18 from 4pm to 1am every day. Shoppers have just a few days left to enjoy discounts of up to 70 per cent at Global Village. Vendors across many pavilions are offering final clearance sales on a wide range of products, from abayas and accessories to footwear and souvenirs. The discounts are currently in many pavilions, and marks the grand shopping finale of the season. From heritage-rich handicrafts to modern accessories and fashion items, every corner of Global Village is buzzing with last-minute shoppers looking to grab bargains. Vendors said that they are slashing prices to clear stock. At the UAE Pavilion, shoppers are taking advantage of the massive discounts on traditional wear. Jalabia and abayas, which were originally priced between Dh150 to Dh200, are now available for as low as Dh50. Recently announced offers will continue to be available until the season's closure. These include the 'Kids Go Free' offer, allowing children under 12 to enter the park free of charge, as well as the 'Carnaval offer', providing a selection of unlimited rides in the Carnaval area for just Dh50, and the 'Golden Bar Challenge', where participants have the chance to win Dh2,900 in cash by lifting a golden bar from a box — part of a total prize pool of Dh87,000. Before season ends, 250 dining options are still available to explore, some of which are only available at Global Village. These include a number of savoury delicacies and sweet treats, made of mouthwatering flavours and with a unique presentation. Global Village announced that fireworks displays will light up the skies to celebrate the grand finale next Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. This is not the first time Global Village has extended its season. Last year, the attraction announced the extension of season 28 from April 28 to May 5. Few days later it announced a further extension to May 8 due to high demand. It had also increased its operating hours during the extension period to cater to the high demand. Meanwhile, in 2022, Global Village extended its 26th season from April 10 to May 7. As the season draws to a close, Global Village is wrapping up with a range of exciting new additions and experiences. This year, the park has expanded its offerings to include more cultural showcases, new entertainment acts, and upgraded infrastructure — all aimed at enhancing the visitor experience. It had also lined up a series of stunning acts and performances as Global Village was set to close by Sunday.
