People love markets, and who would judge? Strolling around pretty, colourful things, savouring a nice beer, or chewing on some snacks — what a time!
As the holy month of Ramadan approaches, Dubai is changing from its "party all night" to the "nice, calm and sophisticated" festiveness. And so, if you are on the lookout for a market that celebrates Emirati and regional culture — check out the Ramadan Market in the financial heart of our city.
Running from March 15 to April 4, the Jumeirah Emirates Towers Arena will be transformed into a vibrant centre featuring local brands (Les Benjamins fans will be pleasantly surprised), captivating entertainment, innovative concepts, and much more.
Stepping into the free-entry Ramadan Market is akin to entering a world where tradition meets innovation. Here, visitors are treated to a feast for the senses, with a diverse array of local brands, captivating entertainment, and unique concepts awaiting exploration. From intricately crafted homeware items to the latest fashion trends from celebrated regional designers, the market offers something to enthral every visitor.
Don’t forget to check out the beautiful rugs that are scattered everywhere! They will get you to this mood of celebration and community!
Families have an opportunity to relax and enjoy their quality time in a dedicated children's area, filled with workshops and activities to keep everyone entertained, allowing parents to immerse themselves fully in the cultural delights on offer.
Of course, no cultural celebration is complete without indulging in its culinary delights. At the Ramadan Market, food lovers are spoiled for choice, with an array of food trucks serving up mouth-watering delicacies that tantalise the taste buds and evoke the essence of Arabian hospitality.
Beyond the shopping and dining experiences, the Ramadan Market serves as a platform for fostering community spirit and celebrating the rich tapestry of Emirati and regional heritage.
Whether you are a local resident or a visitor to the city, the Ramadan Market at DIFC's Ramadan District promises a pleasant experience that encapsulates the welcoming and warm essence of Ramadan and the vibrant cultural landscape of Dubai.
So, mark your calendars and prepare to embark on a journey of discovery and celebration at this not-to-be-missed event.
