The
Global Village continues to grow as
the event that gives the Dubai Shopping
Festival its international essence.
With more than 2.3 million confirmed
visitors last year (source Gulf Marketing
Research), the Global Village continues
to be the "Focal Point of the Dubai
Shopping Festival".
Through
the exhibition of traditional art, handicrafts
and national products displayed in over
30 Pavilions representing countries
from the Middle East, Africa, Asia,
and Europe, Al-Futtaim Investments is
looking to raise Global Village 2003
to new heights. In addition, with over
60 restaurants, our visitors are presented
with the opportunity to taste the many
traditional dishes and delicacies from
around the world. As always the giant
Fun Fair will offer thrills and excitement
for all the family, further promoting
our event as a complete 'enjoyment'
venue.
As part of our commitment to Global
Village 2003, Al-Futtaim Investments
has introduced a more 'permanent' feel
to the site. Landscaped areas with trees,
plants and even more seating, will present
a more pleasing and relaxed atmosphere
allowing visitors an opportunity to
unwind during their stay.
Additionally,
Al-Futtaim Investments has created a
unique stage area, where entertainers
and acts from the various pavilions
will be able to promote their country's
culture through music and traditional
scenes.
Above
all, the overall plan of the site has
been further improved, taking into account
the increased flow of visitors throughout
the Global Village while promoting a
visually stimulating environment.
Global
Village 2003 will continue to promote
Dubai as a leading family entertainment
centre within the Middle East and beyond.
