Since it was launched in 1996, the Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF), organized by the Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment (DFRE), an agency of the Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (Dubai Tourism) has been spreading joy and happiness among residents and visitors every year with its great shopping experiences filled with mega promotions and raffles offering amazing prizes.
Over the past 22 years, prizes worth over AED 2 billion in various forms including property, cars, gold and cash have been distributed to DSF visitors who were fortunate enough to have won in one of the numerous raffle-linked shopping promotions. These prizes have helped change the lives of many winners and the winning journey continues during the 22nd edition of the festival with total prizes of over AED 100 million up for grabs.
In previous editions of DSF, residents and visitors to Dubai have taken home incredible winnings including prizes like Rolls-Royce, Infiniti, Nissan, and Lexus cars. One lucky DSF shopper even received 100 kg of gold that was offered as a grand prize while another won 10 Nissan cars, all for himself. One real estate company also offered prizes such as a small island, a private jet, as well as properties.
DSF combines shopping with 34 days of entertainment and leisure activities and offers many chances for visitors to win big. The compulsive shopper will be perhaps the most rewarded visitor of DSF 2017 with bargains, special offers and discounts of up to 75 % on a range of items including world-renowned brands of perfumes, electronics, cosmetics, jewellery, antiques and handicrafts.
