Dubai Shopping Festival and Global Village lend a special charm to our city

There's so much happening around in the town. December is surely the season to be jolly. After the UAE National Day celebrations and the long weekend, we now have Christmas around the corner, and also the Dubai Shopping Festival that will kickstart in just a few more days.
DSF is just getting bigger and better with each edition. It started off in 1996 and has grown massively since then. This is the best time to shop around especially because of cool deals and discounts. Moreover, the city will be decked up in festive gear for the festival and the new year. There will also be celebrations all around and special events to mark the month of joy: fireworks, pop-up fashion shows, raffle draws, concerts, and plenty of activities to keep everyone entertained and occupied.
And then there is the Global Village. One of the world's largest tourism attractions and a place that entertains people of all ages and cultural backgrounds. It is a venue well known for its hospitality, warmth, and affable service. Every pavilion is unique, and brings the best of each country to us in the UAE.
Dubai Shopping Festival and Global Village lend a special charm to this beautiful city, and it is not just us, the residents, who enjoy these two signature events but people from all over. These are must-visit attractions, an occasion that is a true blend of festivity and lights, shopping and glamour, sports and adventure, multi-cuisine food and multi-ethnic culture. As the city is adorned with lights during this seasons this is the festival that is much loved by millions. 
Time to don the winter gear and celebrate.
