Global Village has unveiled an eco-friendly outdoor Snowfest ice rink that'll allow skaters to enjoy an evening of sliding around and getting caught in a beautiful snow shower.

Situated at the entrance of the Carnaval, guests will be provided with skates, safety gear for kids and a pair of fluffy socks, for a fun and safe skating session.

Each 20-minute session will cost AED 40.

Organisers say the "revolutionary, world-class synthetic rink" will give visitors the "same experience as real ice skating, but without the wet feet and chilly noses".
