If you have just relocated to Dubai I am sure you will have discovered that shopping is a very popular past time for Dubai residents. To celebrate this popular hobby Dubai hosts a shopping festival each year. The Dubai shopping festival, or DSF as we call it locally is popular because of the huge discounts offered throughout the malls.
In addition, the festival provides great entertainment for children with street fairs, food stalls, fireworks. At the Heritage and Diving Village traditional performances and cultural activities are held . This year the festival will be taking place from the 2nd January through to the 2nd February.
