Global Village Season 29: New features, experiences await visitors

As one of the UAE’s most popular multicultural family destinations, Global Village is all set to kick off its highly anticipated Season 29  on October 16, with new features and enhancements.

From new dining hotspots to immersive cultural pavilions and Instagram-worthy settings, this season is packed with vibrant surprises for families, foodies, shoppers and culture enthusiasts alike.

For food lovers, Global Village’s Restaurant Plaza is the highlight of Season 29.

Nestled next to the Carnaval fun fair area, this brand-new dining destination features 11 two-storey restaurants, each offering views of the entire destination.

Three new cultural pavilions at Global Village

In addition to the new dining experience, Global Village has added three new cultural pavilions, raising the total number to 30 — each celebrating the rich culture and heritage of more than 90 countries. From authentic crafts to exotic foods, each pavilion showcases highlights of the participating countries.

The Railway Market, Floating Market, and Fiesta Street have all undergone major transformations, bringing fresh design concepts and vibrant new atmospheres to these popular areas.

The Railway Market, for example, has been reimagined to provide a panoramic, picturesque experience with beautifully curated spaces that invite you to take in the sights, sounds, and smells of global marketplaces.

The newly revamped Floating Market features striking water-side views, creating a serene ambience as you explore local goods from different cultures. Whether you’re taking a stroll or snapping photos, this area provides the perfect backdrop for a peaceful and picturesque experience.

Fiesta Street’s double-story street kiosks will offer guests a wider range of dining options and a more immersive culinary experience. Each kiosk is designed to reflect the vibrant colours and flavours of its country of origin.

Relax and unwind

One of the most exciting upgrades for Season 29 is the introduction of spacious green promenades throughout Global Village.

These lush, green pathways offer the perfect ambience for families and friends to relax, unwind, and soak in the lively atmosphere of the destination.
