A whole season families await: Global Village (October-April) — ninety national pavilions of products and foods, street shows and fireworks, and a funfair: the region's largest seasonal festival and the Gulf's uncontested family favorite. Weekdays breathe far easier with weekends for full energy and grand shows; India and Africa pavilions shop truest with pavilion restaurants beating carts; tickets are token, parking free, and after-Asr entry catches the complete air.
