Four unmissable activities happening in Dubai this weekend
How are we already at the last weekend of January?! Time really is flying by, so be sure to make the most of your time off this weekend with the little ones, and enjoy one of these fantastic activities taking place across Dubai.
Become a human claw for the chance to win great prizes
City Centre Me’aisem has unveiled a crane-like device to transport shoppers into a giant gift pit, for the chance to win great gifts from the huge pile of surprises!
It is designed for both adults and children, so the little ones can win big too! While one person turns into the human claw, the other controls the movement to steer them to victory. Prizes from different outlets and venues include Magic Planet, Ski Dubai, Patchi, Aldo, Bath & Body Works, in addition to mall gift cards and shopping vouchers.
Visitors who spend AED 200 at lifestyle and fashion stores at City Centre Me’aisem are eligible to play the game. Good luck!
Details: Available to play at City Centre Me’aisem until January 26th.
Enjoy some al-fresco shopping
Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) will welcome its popular Market Outside the Box (MOTB) back on 24 January until 2 February.
The grass roots-led initiative will host exciting vendors across the 10-day showcase in Burj Park, welcoming visitors to shop al fresco from 4pm to 10pm on weekdays, and 10am to 10pm on weekends. The free-to-enter market will include a range of activities for the whole family to participate in such as arts and crafts workshops, cap customisation, jewellery making and shoe art sessions.
