Live entertainment and performances keep the fun quotient high

Keep an eye out for Ocho the Octopus, a life-sized marvel and for other neon creatures that will put a smile on your face. Indulge in fun-filled live entertainment at pop-up markets of DSF.

Lip-smacking menus to compliment your experience

Sink your teeth into delectable savory items or taste authentic Emirati cuisine at various food stalls at all pop-up markets of DSF like Al Seef or Al Khawaneej. Explore the unique concept of SALT and Sugar, that will give you the golden chance to try out the best of both worlds- sweet and savory- in a one-of-a-kind dining concept.

Additionally, the streets of Downtown Dubai have been brought to life by a series of illuminations that take residents and visitors on an enthralling journey of light and discovery as part of Dubai Shopping Festival’s (DSF) Al Hai project in partnership with Dubai Culture & Arts Authority (Dubai Culture) and Emaar.

Featuring immersive, innovative and sustainable art installations that were four months in the making, Al Hai is electrifying the buzzing Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard, opposite the Address Downtown hotel, through specially installed lights and clever use of shadows. Al Hai is inspired by the urban layout and domestic landmarks that mark Emirati neighbourhoods that would be highlighted through a spatial play of light lines forming boundaries that would outline the essence of domestic and architectural events visually and metaphorically. The project’s concept embraces a deep-rooted longing to hold onto the rich heritage and history of Emirati homes, traditions and culture, even as Dubai strives for greater advances in modern life and adopts the latest technologies.
