A variety of Ramadan-themed performances will include oud, qanun, harp and cello players, a traditional Tannoura dancer and a close-up magician.

Families and friends can also rent board and card games like Uno, Keiram, Jackaroo, Chess and Backgammon. All bookings can be made online or the App starting from March 20.

Quite a performance

Across the entire month, Global Village will host a variety of Ramadan-themed shows. The highlight will be a magnificent 30-piece arabesque Orchestra performing twice every night on the Main Stage.
