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.
