Dubai, the city that never sleeps, is ready to welcome shopping and entertainment lovers again at the thirtieth anniversary Dubai Shopping Festival. This grandiose holiday, which takes place in December and January, has become a real tradition for residents and guests of the emirate.

The idea of the festival belongs to the government of Dubai, which sought to demonstrate the uniqueness of the city and its capabilities as a center of trade and tourism. The main task was to create a platform for local businesses, as well as attract international brands. The festival has become a symbol of Dubai’s dynamic development and its desire to become a global player in the market of services and entertainment.

This year’s festival promises to be especially bright and memorable!
