Dubai Municipality will officially launch the third season of the Ramadan Souq on Saturday, 25 January 2025, at the Old Municipality Street Square, located in the Grand Souq, Deira.
The event, running until 22 February, aims to preserve the authenticity of traditional customs in preparation for Ramadan, while promoting the rich history of traditional markets as a tourist attraction and providing a platform for local investors.
The souq will feature a wide array of recreational, tourism, and commercial activities designed for all members of the community. Whether you're a local resident, a visitor, or a tourist, the market offers a unique shopping experience with competitive prices. The event will showcase stalls run by long-standing shopkeepers selling Ramadan supplies and products for the ‘Haq Al Laila’ celebration, alongside a variety of food, personal items, and other goods.
In addition to shopping, the market will host live entertainment, workshops, and activities for children. The event is open daily from 10 am to 10 pm, offering something for everyone, from families to heritage enthusiasts.
Asem Al Qassim, Director of the Architectural Heritage and Antiquities Department at Dubai Municipality, emphasized the importance of the souq in celebrating the arrival of Ramadan and promoting Dubai’s historical markets.
“The Grand Souq’s enduring role as a shopping hub and a key tourist attraction reflects Dubai's cultural legacy,”
he said.
Dubai Municipality’s Ramadan Souq initiative supports tourism, entertainment, and commercial activities, fostering investment and boosting demand for public facilities and entertainment venues across the city.
