Dubai’s Global Village To Remain Open Until May 2

Dubai-aites, listen up! You now have a little more time to get your dose of Global Village. Dubai’s favorite carnival was to wind up its silver jubilee celebrations on April 18. However, organisers have now extended the fest by two weeks, citing the start of Ramadan, as the reason. “Because one week is not enough to enjoy the wonders of Ramadan, we will continue to welcome you at Global Village until May 2,” Global Village posted on its Twitter page.
