Heading to Global Village this Friday? Keep your entry ticket: it could get you back through the gates on Saturday without paying for another visit.
The Dubai attraction has announced a limited return-entry offer for its Diwali weekend. Guests who visit on Friday, 6 November 2026 can use that entry ticket to claim complimentary admission on Saturday, 7 November.
Who qualifies?
You need an entry ticket from your 6 November visit. Saturday admission is limited to 3,100 guests, with tickets allocated in arrival order. This is a return-visit promotion, so simply arriving on Saturday does not qualify you for free entry.
How to claim it
- Visit Global Village on 6 November and retain your entry ticket.
- On 7 November, take it to the Information Desk outside Gate of the World.
- Exchange it for complimentary entry, subject to the remaining allocation.
What else is happening?
Diwali celebrations run from 6 to 10 November, with a mela, family activities and festive entertainment. Baithak, a South Asian music gathering, is scheduled for 6 November from 8pm to 9pm on the Main Stage. A Diwali drone show follows on 8 November at 8pm.
The free return-entry offer applies to 7 November; it does not extend across the full celebration. Check the venue’s current information before travelling, and keep that Friday ticket handy.
