Global Village has announced an extension of its 26th season, meaning visitors will have more time to explore the attraction before it closes for summer.
The ever-popular family attraction, which was due to close its doors for the warmer months on April 10, will now remain open until May 7, adding four extra weeks.
This year, Global Village is marking its 26th season with 26 pavilions representing more than 80 cultures from around the world.
Among the countries and continents represented are: the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Afghanistan, Africa, the Americas, China, Egypt, Europe, India, Iran, Iraq, Japan, South Korea, Lebanon, Morocco, Pakistan, Palestine, Syria, Thailand, Turkey, Yemen and Russia.
New attractions at Global Village this season include a Peter Rabbit Adventure Zone, which houses a series of fun and interactive activity areas based on the much-loved childhood character.
Internationally acclaimed dance show Burn The Floor has also made its regional debut, with a regular slot on the attraction’s main stage. The high-voltage show features daring choreography by a troupe of international dancers.
