Ramadan nights are returning, and Global Village is set to bring out the best for the guests. For Ramadan 2026, the popular open-air destination is extending its operating hours. Expect long evenings, relaxed outings and a diverse scene of food, culture, and community.
Global Village Ramadan 2026 Timings Revealed
According to a report by Gulf News, Global Village will open daily from 5 pm to 1 am from Sunday to Wednesday, and stay open even later, until 2 am from Thursday to Saturday. The move positions the park as a go-to spot for post-iftar plans, late-night walks, and suhoor stops.
At the heart of this year’s Ramadan experience is Multaqa Global Village, a new complementary gathering space created specifically for the Holy Month. Designed like a traditional majlis, the tent-style seating area focuses on comfort that makes guests linger longer for slow, prolonged conversations. Set right in front of the Main Stage, Multaqa invites guests to grab food from nearby kiosks, rent traditional games, and settle in. It works just as well for iftar with family as it does for late-night catch-ups with friends.
Live Entertainment That Fits The Season
Ramadan entertainment at Global Village takes a thoughtful turn this season. The Main Stage will host a curated programme featuring live orchestra performances alongside oud, nay, harp, and violin shows. The traditional Tannoura dance also returns, adding colour and movement to the evenings.
Al Mandoos Live Game Show, hosted by Abdulla Esmaeel, will run at 9.30 pm across three consecutive weekends, starting Friday, February 20. To mark the beginning of Ramadan, a special drone show will turn the sky colourful.
Global Village has included décor that sets the mood. Expect glowing lanterns, crescent motifs, warm lighting, and themed installations across the park.
