Heaven for food reviewers and foodie's. The must to go place in Dubai . Only one negative thing about this place is very poor vehicle parking management and no sign for pick up and drop place very confusing . Not suitable for elder people or buggy car service available with the price of 100 dirham for 1hour .

what could go wrong at the village? almost the best place i have been to! it is surprisingly really clean - despite the amount of people it can hold. There's hundreds, if not, tons of food venues and art works - they have everything you need from fun, entertainment and delicious food. it gets better everytime! the only thing thats not practical was the dirty washrooms - although I can imagine its a tough job to keep the place clean with the amount of people that go there, but a place like the global village should easily fix the problem.

Wowww experience. Truly a global affair. World cuisine, local culture with local people from around the world. Cultural programs by the local artists. Professional stunt artists, overwhelming fire-works and finger licking food.

Wow is not the word to describe this place.

Wow is not the word to describe this place.
Very very huge with sections of each country.
The entrance for each country has the peculiarity of that country projected in an artistic way.
Section of each country has stalls of specialities of that country.
Huge area with ample parking space available.
Opens at 4pm and goes on till probably 12 midnight. If you visit inside every country's section, 4pm to 12 midnight on one single day might not be sufficient.
Ample food options available.
Very very crowded.

There are some shows which are ongoing and can be seen based on their published timings.

Kids up to 5 years should definitely be in a pram.
Can get boring for kids unless they are in the kids play section.

Every year it is newly built and different things can be seen every year.

Definitely worth a visit.

The bus stop is in front of the entrance as well as the parking and taxi
Very interesting for kids to get to know countries and cultures
There're a lot of shops with souvenirs and food
Also a big entartainment area
On the day of opening there was the fireworks display

Amazing place. Keeps getting better every year. A must visit for anybody visiting Dubai between Oct and April. Has fireworks, musical fountains, spectacular shows on the main stage in weekends. The arrangements from arriving till one reaches inside are superb. No issues with parking. Plenty of space and if you have parked too far away from the main entrance then there is a toy train or busses tgat will take you to the main entrance. One inside the place is bustling with trades from different countries trying to sell their ware. The country pavilion are worth visiting. Bargain well whatever u plan to buy. Enough eateries so one won't go hungry.

This is a very nice place where you can find all country specialising products at one place, including food. But before buying any product, think twice if it is worth the money we pay as we can be easily fooled and end up paying twice the actual amount. They also have circus and carnival and many stage events happening every day. It is better to visit at the opening time 4.00 pm, so that you will be able to cover most of the places before 12.00 mid night, before the closing time as it is really huge.

beautiful and well done area!! so many decorations to look at and they portrayed most of the cultures very well! took about 6 to 7 hours for my family to cover the whole thing but it was well worth it. everything was great, but it seems like they give preference to mainly middle eastern/islamic countries?? maybe that was just how i felt, but latin america, south america, and north america got grouped into the "americas" while basnia got its own location. other than that, it was very nice!

Very good event , huge parking for cars, there are shuttles to ferry people. Very good events and well managed events. There are updated event calendar on the site to give you idea about interesting events and concerts. There are many pavilions to see different cultural activities and buy things from different geo locations. Always recommended for family outing.

This is a HUGE place. So huge that we clocked Eleven kilometers just to complete a round of the place. Huge parking area, huge entrance arch, lots of eating places, live music performances. You won't notice how you have spent 4,5 hours here. Basically it's like an amusement park. The whole global village is divided into sections of continents and countries. And in their particular section you'll find the market place selling products of that country and food stalls serving that country cuisine, along with global brands of fast food and beverages. The concept of Global village is unique and great, you get to see the products and cuisines of various countries in one place. And we were there in period of Dubai shopping festival. The place is very crowded though. We were glad to find a section of our country India, where we enjoyed Indian food.

Global village keeps developing every year. One of my favorite places to visit in winter. Food prices inside are much expensive. Parking is a big issue. Where you need to park very far and walk for the gate. Specially if you have new born baby and can't use the train.

This is a different kind of Dubai experience. It is an amazing place for grabbing bites of international food and buying some sovereigns.

My favorites are the Turkish corner and the Cars show. On the Turkish corner you can find very delicious dessert, kebab sandwiches, and you can buy fresh honey.

The car show is a very nice and unique experience. It is a mini circus with cars.

Try to avoid this place on busy weekends unless you don t mind spending half your day parking and getting out.

I would recommend it for families and those looking for a different experience in Dubai other than night life and shopping malls.

Good attraction for an evening out, you need to be prepared for long walk, eatables are usually very pricey so better you take your own snacks with you. Cultural shows at some pavilions are very entertaining.

Global village is one of the best and awesome place to visit in UAE. A place where we can explore the life and cultures of various countries in the world. Several important countries from Asia, Europe, American continents etc. are participating in the venture. We could purchase their products and also we could be able to enjoy their artforms like traditional songs, dances, paintings etc.
A perfect place to spend a day with a team either family or friends. Dubai Road Transport Authority provides bus facility to there. In short, a perfect destination where we can explore the world inside a single compound, by spending 15 Dirhams.
