Get Ready for a Spectacle at Global Village 2023!
Well, well, well, look who’s back on the entertainment scene like a bad penny—you guessed it, Global Village! This year, they’ve rolled out the red carpet (and some surprisingly high-priced packs) that could knock your socks off, or at the very least, your spare change! Let’s dive into the dizzying array of attractions, entertainment, and those oh-so-glamorous packs!
Mega Packs: Are You Ready to Empty Your Wallet?
First up, we have the Mega Gold Pack priced at a staggering AED 4,745. Now, for that price, this isn’t just a ticket; it’s practically a small piece of real estate! This hefty investment includes the Global Village Gold VIP Pack and the Dubai Parks and Resorts Ultimate Platinum Plus Annual Pass. I suspect the only thing it doesn’t include is your dignity when you tell your friends how much you’ve spent.
If you’re feeling slightly thriftier (yes, we went for the “slightly”), there’s the Mega Silver Pack. At the mere bargain of AED 3,245, you still get access to the Global Village Silver VIP Pack plus an Ultimate Platinum Annual Pass. Do you see a pattern here? It’s like a game of ‘how much can we charge for access to fun?’ Here’s a tip: do some crunches… crunch the numbers, folks!
Adventure Awaits: Fun in Abundance!
Now, let’s talk about what comes with those pesky packs. Owners will get unrestricted access to all parks, whoo! You can run wild with your kids—or your inner child, whichever you prefer. If that wasn’t enough to make your wallet weep, the pack includes a delightful 20% discount at both the Lapita Hotel and Lego Land Hotel. At this rate, the hotel staff might even start calling you ‘Sir’ or ‘Madam’! Just don’t blame us if you wake up to find a Lego piece lodged in your foot!
Opening Day and More Surprises!
Circle your calendars, folks! On October 16, the Global Village will welcome you from 6 PM to Midnight, because who doesn’t want to start their evening in the dark? The operational hours are much more reasonable through the week, running from 4 PM to Midnight Sunday to Wednesday, and who doesn’t love a cheeky extra hour on weekends? That’s right—until 1 AM on Thursday to Saturday.
New Attractions That Will Take Your Breath Away!
Brace yourselves, my fellow thrill-seekers. This year, the Global Village promises some shiny new baubles for the entertainment junkies! There’s a Railway Market, a Floating Market, and a brand-new Fiesta Street—because what’s a fiesta without a street? There will also be new green promenades, and for those of you who love to relax, additional seating for families and friends (or frenemies, your choice!). And if you’re feeling fancy, you can check out the new restaurant plaza, which will host over 250 different global cuisines—perfect for sampling dishes you can’t pronounce!
Here Comes the Fun!
And if you thought that was it, think again! Over 40,000 entertainers will swarm the village like a well-ordered army of entertainment! Expect performances galore, including a brand-new stunt show that’s sure to leave you questioning your life choices—like why on earth you spent two weeks’ rent on a gold pack? But let’s be honest, who doesn’t love a good stunt?
So, grab your family, your friends, and a considerable amount of cash, and head down to Global Village this year! More rides, more games, and enough food to make your stomach contemplate lifelong dietary choices await you. Remember to bring your sense of adventure—and maybe a safety net, because judging by that price tag, you’re going to need it!
