Dubai is a dream, heaven, and desire for shopaholics where all their shopping fantasies come to life. It is one ultimate stop-shop for shopaholics where they can enjoy a massive shopping extravaganza for a month straight. Dubai Shopping Festival is a diverse bouquet of activities and entertainments that furnishes an entire new set of bright and energetic vibes. It is the largest shopping festival blended with spectacular entertainment in the Middle East. People from different parts of the world gather here and satisfy their wants in this shopping paradise.

Here, each and everything on your shopping list is heavily discounted and the shopping is not just restricted to malls, it also includes local shops and flea markets too. FYI, this discount can go up to 70-75 percent!!!! Isn’t that crazy? 

We can compare the ‘shopping’ part of the Dubai Festival to Black Friday shopping in America. Black Friday offers heavy discounts on all major brands for one night whereas the Dubai Shopping festival provides heavy discounts for a month.
