Six key destinations set to dazzle visitors to DSF 2013
The Dubai Shopping Festival is the time when the city puts its best foot forward - and DSF 2013 is no exception. With a view to presenting ’Dubai at its Best’ the Dubai Events and Promotions Establishment (DEPE), an agency of the Department of Economic Development, and the organizers of DSF is concentrating on activating the lifeline of the city – the Dubai Creek – by hosting the main attractions of the festival around the place where the city’s history began.
The six main destinations of DSF 2013 are the four creekside venues of the Festival Promenade at Dubai Festival City, the Al Seef Street area, the Creek Park and the Heritage and Diving Village, as well as Al Riqqa Street and Downtown Dubai.
Ms. Suhaila Ghubash, Events Director – DEPE, said: “It’s a great opportunity for visitors to DSF to take in the whole city of Dubai as they go to the locations of the events spread out all over the city. In the Dubai Creek area alone, we have four different venues for the events. Other main Dubai neighbourhoods that will host the events and activities of DSF 2103 are Al Riqqa Street, in the commercial heart of Deira and the unique Downtown Dubai. DSF 2013 is also geared towards providing more events and entertainment for our younger audience, such as the various children’s rides at Al Riqqa Street and special activities for kids at the Creek Park.”
“The six main locations of DSF 2013’s activities have also been selected keeping in mind their picturesque surroundings, apart from their importance to the city’s history and heritage”, she added.
