Global Village in Dubai is a unique open-air cultural and entertainment destination that blends a world fair, festival, food paradise, and international shows into one spectacular experience. Spanning over 1.6 million square meters, it features dozens of country pavilions representing more than 25 nations, each showcasing its heritage, crafts, music, traditions, and cuisine.
You can stroll through the “streets” of Egypt, India, Turkey, Japan, Morocco, and many other countries—all in one evening. Each pavilion offers unique souvenirs, clothing, jewelry, spices, and sweets imported directly from around the world. A vast street food area lets you sample flavors from every continent.
Global Village is especially popular with families: amusement rides, carousels, circus performances, live concerts, cultural dances, and dazzling firework shows take place every night. The park operates seasonally, from October to April, when the weather is most pleasant.
Global Village is a passport-free journey where, in just one visit, you can immerse yourself in the cultures of dozens of nations, enjoy world-class entertainment, and create lasting memories with family and friends.
