A coffee shop overlooking the lake; a new iconic structure; and new and modified walkways are among the upgrades Global Village will feature for its 2021 season.
The 26th edition of Global Village begins on October 26, 2021.
Here's a look at all of the newest additions:
- The bridge that connects India and Africa pavilions will have a new theme this season. Inspired by Budapest's famous 'Margaret Bridge', it will have a unique coffee shop overlooking the lake.
- A new and “iconic Instagram-able” structure near the Arabian Square will be unveiled when season 26 kicks off. This structure will be placed on a pedestrian roundabout.
- A new corridor now connects Happiness Street with the newly named Fireworks Avenue.
- The avenue leading to Carnaval will also be home to a new fountain feature.
- Fiesta Street will introduce more street food kiosks this season.
- Street entertainment is back.
- Dotto trains will bring guests to and from the parking zones.
- Walkways have been modified to avoid crowding on busier days. This will help ensure smooth flow of visitors between popular outlets and pavilions.
- The seating area around the main stage has been expanded to accommodate more people.
- Audio-visual quality has been enhanced for performances on the main stage.
Muhannad Ishaq, senior manager – Guest Relations at Global Village, said:
“As part of this season’s infrastructure upgrades, we have introduced more seating areas, adjusted some of the paths to improve guest movement, improved our main stage experience and much more.”
