Tipped as the world's premier shopping event the Dubai Shopping Festival is also one of the biggest and most successful tourist events in the UAE's already jam-packed tourist calendar.  Drawing a whopping 3.35 million plus retail hungry crowds from across the globe this landmark shopper's event rakes in a mind-blowing 9.8 billion dirham during the 32 day long festival. Taking place for the 15th consecutive year, the first ever Dubai Shopping Festival took place back in 1996 attracting an impressive 1.6 million shoppers in its opening year. Having grown in size, scale and scope over the past 15 years the festival is now an international shopping event that guarantees the finest wares at reduced rates with great discounts and unbelievable bargains thrown into the mix.

 

Commencing on 20th January 2011, the festival which runs through till 20th February gives shoppers the opportunity to purchase tax free retail items and discounts on products such as textiles, jewellery, perfume, handicrafts, electronics and even cars. With the One World, One Family, One Festival as its theme, the participating countries will set up their own pavilions inside the aptly named Global Village.

 

Due to Dubai's well-known tax free import rates, the festival is also the perfect venue to purchase top rated imported items such as timepieces, jewellery and perfumes from the world's most popular brands. The discounts on these items range from 5- 50% as malls and retailers compete to offer the best prices. Visitors can also expect to be bombarded with a plethora of raffle draws, free gifts and other competitions that give away fantastic prizes and surprises during the festival.

 

As an event that not only highlights Dubai's retail prowess the festival also encompasses a range of equally engaging events such as book fairs, exhibitions and operas for the differently abled. Kids and adults can all enjoy the Children of the World Olympiad, Al Rostamani Aqua Fantasia and Cartoon Shows headlined by Casper, Pokémon, Tarzan as well as the Alligator and Dolphin characters. The Carpet Oasis, Fashion Week and Global Village shows are also fun filled events for the whole family while the jazz and dance events that are organized especially during the festival are a treat for all music lovers. Sports fans on the other hand can try their hand at rowing and skating contests that are held at the festival or participate in the open tennis championship, football and ice hockey tournaments or Hockey On Synthetic Surface competitions at the venue.
