About the event
What is Global Village?
Global Village has been a fixture of Dubai's cooler months since 1997. Each season, the park hosts country pavilions representing more than 90 cultures, with traditional crafts, food stalls, stage shows, fireworks and a large ride and games area. Season 30 closed on 31 May 2026, and Season 31 is listed on the official site as running from 14 October 2026 to May 2027.
Global Village says it has welcomed more than 100 million visitors in its history. With a season lasting around seven months, pavilions, food vendors, sponsors and partner brands need a steady flow of fresh content rather than a single campaign, from opening-night coverage to weekly reels, event-night photography and seasonal promotions.
