Dubai’s Global Village has announced an extension of its 30th season, pushing the closing date to Sunday, 31 May 2026 — a finale that will coincide with Eid Al Adha celebrations.
The extension follows a strong public response since the venue reopened on 20 April, with families, residents, and tourists returning in numbers that underscored the destination’s standing in Dubai’s social calendar.
Dubai Holding Entertainment CEO Fernando Eiroa framed the decision as both a milestone acknowledgment and a bridge to what comes next. “Season 30 marks a significant milestone for Global Village, reflecting three decades of growth, evolution and shared success. It has shown the strength of the destination, the dedication of our teams and partners and the continued trust of our guests,” he said.
On the timing of the extension, Eiroa added: “Concluding the season during Eid Al Adha, a time that brings communities together, allows us to celebrate alongside the families, residents and visitors who have made this chapter so memorable. As we look ahead to Season 31, our focus remains on building on this momentum, continuing to evolve the guest experience, strengthen our offering and reinforce Global Village’s position as one of the region’s most distinctive destinations for culture, entertainment, dining and retail.”
To make the most of the extended run, Global Village is offering unlimited Carnaval ride access for AED 99, alongside a family entry package — four tickets for AED 30, with each additional ticket at AED 7.50. Operating hours have also been extended, with the venue open from 5:00 PM to 1:00 AM on Fridays and Saturdays, and from 5:00 PM to midnight on weekdays.
Season 30 brought together more than 90 cultures under one roof, with over 3,500 retail outlets, more than 250 dining options, and an entertainment lineup featuring 450 performers across more than 40,500 shows.
