About this experience
Global Village is a seasonal open-air park in Dubailand built around country pavilions - more than ninety of them - each selling food, crafts and goods from its own region. It runs as a winter season only, closing through the hot months.
Beyond the pavilions there is a funfair with rides and games, a stunt and concert arena, a street-food area and a nightly fireworks show. It is a walking evening out rather than a ticketed attraction with a fixed route, and most visitors give it three to four hours.
