Dubai Shopping Festival Keeps The Gifts Flowing For 2013
With more than AED1.5 billion worth of gifts and prizes already offered since its launch in 1996, it is no wonder that shoppers wait with bated breath all year for the Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) to arrive in order to make the full use of its amazing promotions and try their luck with the winning opportunities.
The DEPE media centre said that Dubai’s retail, hospitality and tourism sectors have competed intensely down the years to offer the best deals, promotions and prizes to their target audience which comprises people from all over the world, and have outdone themselves so far during DSF 2013. The DSF’s continued success rests on three main pillars – shopping, entertainment and winning.
The festival has always been known for its huge raffle draws, be it the best luxury cars, gold or other prizes. The evidence for this lies in the ever-increasing numbers of visitors who have come to Dubai over the years during the DSF. In fact, the DSF’s 2012 edition managed to bring in 4.3 million visitors to the city and reported a total spend of AED14.7 bn.
This year as well, the DEPE reported, Dubai’s retail sector led by the malls has outdone itself by offering a large number of high-quality gifts and prizes to shoppers who have come from all over the world, making their trips seem worthwhile by adding joy and happiness to an event that seeks to present “Dubai at its Best”.
