Global Village confirms extended Ramadan timings

Global Village has confirmed its opening and closing hours during the Holy Month of Ramadan. The family entertainment venue will be open from 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. on Sunday to Wednesday and 5 p.m. to 2 a.m. Thursday to Saturday.

Global Village, the region’s premier multicultural family destination for entertainment, dining, shopping and attractions, is set to welcome the Holy Month, transforming the park into a Home of Ramadan Wonders, offering guests immersive and unforgettable Ramadan nights for its Season 29.

As part of the emirate-wide #RamadanInDubai campaign and a key highlight on the Dubai Calendar of Events, Global Village continues its tradition of unveiling new experiences each Ramadan, enriching the Holy Month’s essence of connection, reflection, and shared moments. These experiences complement the returning Ramadan-themed offerings in shopping, dining, and live performances, including the Arabesque Orchestra. A unique daily activation also features the Ramadan Cannon beside the Main Stage, firing at sunset each day to mark the end of fasting.

This season, the Global Village introduces Multaqa Global Village, a concept designed to bring family and friends together in the spirit of Ramadan. Inspired by the Holy Month’s cherished traditions, Multaqa Global Village offers a free-of-charge seating haven where guests can gather in a warm and inviting setting. Whether unwinding after a stroll through the park or simply enjoying the occasion-themed ambiance, guests will have the opportunity to connect face-to-face, socialising, sharing meals, and reminiscing over nostalgic traditional games that families cherish during this special time of year.

Glowing lanterns and shimmering crescents to sparkling lights and the traditional cannon placement, every Ramadan detail will allow guests to feel the spirit of Ramadan while walking around the destination. Around every corner, there is a perfect opportunity to snap a picture with family and friends. 

Guests can explore the variety of shopping options available throughout the destination at 30 different cultural pavilions, representing over 90 cultures.

Global Village teased fans with a Ramadan-inspired post on Instagram before mentioning in the comments that the entertainment venue has set its opening hours during the Holy Month.
