Sales Galore<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bargain hunters will have a gala time trawling the malls and hopping from one shop to another as shops and brands compete to outdo one another with unbeatable discounts and offers. To make things even more exciting, many participating malls and stores will also have flash sales and promotions to entice the shopaholics in town.<\/p>\n

On 26th<\/sup> December 2018, the very first day of DSF, all of the Majid Al Futtaim managed malls in the city (City Centre malls and Mall of the Emirates) will have a special 12-hour sale where 700 international brands from across 3,200 outlets will offer whopping discounts of up to 90%! Other malls will also be offering special weekend deals and events to amp up the excitement.<\/p>\n

Raffles and Prizes<\/strong><\/p>\n

DSF is not just about finding that perfect shoe on sale or bagging the latest gadget at a crazy discount. One of the things that people look forward to the most is the raffle draws and prizes waiting to be won. If you want to test your luck, enter a draw to win an Infiniti QX50 or get a ticket for the mega cash prize of AED 500, 000! Apart from these main attractions there are several other prizes to be won all throughout the 5-week shopping extravaganza.<\/p>\n

Over the decades, the fireworks for DSF have become as exciting as the sales and deals on offer. Watching the spectacle of fireworks lighting up the Dubai sky in some of the most popular locations is definitely a treat. This edition promises to have some awe-inspiring displays at outdoor hotspots in Dubai including Al Seef, Global Village, The Beach at JBR, Dubai Creek and more!<\/p>\n
