  • Dubai Buzzes with Dubai Shopping Festival 2025-26

    Dubai Buzzes with Dubai Shopping Festival 2025-26
    2025/12/21
    Dubai is buzzing this week, so if you’re wondering what to do, consider this your friendly game plan for the days ahead in the city.

    First, the big one: the Dubai Shopping Festival 2025–26 is in full swing right now. According to Dubai’s Department of Economy and Tourism via Visit Dubai and Tour Guide UAE, the festival runs from 5 December to 11 January and turns the entire city into one giant playground of sales, fireworks, concerts, raffles, and street entertainment. Malls like The Dubai Mall, Mall of the Emirates, Dubai Festival City Mall, and spots like Downtown Dubai, JBR, and Bluewaters are hosting mega discounts, nightly drone and firework shows, and live performances. Many of the fireworks and outdoor shows are free to watch, and if listeners keep their shopping receipts, they can enter raffles for gold, cash, and even luxury cars.

    For a festive evening out, Expo City Dubai is a must this week. The official Expo City Dubai events calendar lists Winter City running from late afternoon into the evening, transforming Al Wasl Plaza and the surrounding areas into a winter village with lights, family activities, and seasonal treats. On top of that, Carols by Candlelight is scheduled in the evening at Expo City, where choirs and soloists perform classic holiday songs under the dome of Al Wasl. Listeners are given LED candles and invited to sing along, making it a cosy, atmospheric night that feels very different from a normal mall visit.

    If listeners want something a bit more cultural while still staying in the city, Visit Dubai’s events calendar highlights ongoing performances and shows at venues like Dubai Opera and citywide DSF stages. This week, expect pop-up concerts, street musicians, and cultural showcases woven into DSF programming, especially on Thursday and Friday nights, when the city’s energy really ramps up.

    Weeknights are perfect for exploring DSF deals with smaller crowds: hit the big malls for fashion and electronics bargains, then step outside to catch a drone show over Bluewaters or Downtown. As the weekend approaches, plan one big night at Expo City’s Winter City and Carols by Candlelight, and another dedicated to a DSF fireworks spot like JBR or Dubai Festival City.
