The countdown to the Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) has officially kicked off.
The Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment (DFRE) is set to unite the emirate like never before for the spectacular 30th anniversary of the fest, which runs from December 6, 2024, to January 12, 2025.
This year promises to be the most extraordinary in the event's history, featuring an action-packed calendar filled with fun and excitement for everyone, every day, across the city.
This milestone celebration marks three decades of showcasing the best of Dubai, highlighting the emirate’s evolution into a vibrant global destination.
Since its inception in 1996, DSF has transformed from a retail event into a citywide celebration of live entertainment, cultural experiences and culinary delights, all set against the backdrop of perfect winter weather.
Expect dazzling experiences, including an impressive lineup of A-list concerts, the return of the popular 321 Festival, and outdoor community events like Market Outside The Box and Canteen X.
Shoppers can look forward to incredible deals from over 1,000 brands, memorable New Year’s celebrations, and thrilling adventures at theme parks.
Every night, the skies will come alive with free immersive displays, including stunning visuals, fireworks, and world-class drone shows.
The full calendar of events will be unveiled soon.
The monumental 30th edition of #Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) will be the city’s greatest, most memorable, and uniquely out-of-this-world celebration ever, marking the most extraordinary season in DSF history from 6 December 2024 to 12 January 2025.
