Squid Game-inspired competition to offer AED 5,000 prize in Dubai

Dubai’s Al Ghurair Centre is set to bring the excitement of the hit Netflix series Squid Game to life with an immersive competition offering a cash prize of up to Dh5,000. The event, called The Game, will take place in the mall’s grand atrium on February 1, from 6 PM to 8 PM.

Participants will face a series of challenges inspired by the show, including the iconic “Red Light, Green Light,” where they must freeze in place when the music stops. The competition also includes a scavenger-style hunting game, requiring players to locate specific stores and take photos to progress to the next round.

Designed for a safe and family-friendly environment, The Game offers fans a chance to experience the thrill of the series without the high stakes.

Registration for the event is open online at thecentre.ae/TheGame2 until January 25. Those who miss the deadline can still sign up on-site 30 minutes before the event begins, subject to availability. Participants must arrive at the venue by 5:30 PM to collect their numbered T-shirts and prepare for the challenge.
