Up, up and away in Dubai
Holidaymakers travelling to Dubai this winter should take a break from hectic Christmas shopping to enjoy the delights of the Dubai Balloon Festival.
From December 20th to 31st, crowds of visitors will flock to the Dubai Outlet Centre to gaze upon more than 100 hot air balloons of all colours, shapes and sizes.
Spectators will be able to witness these balloons in ascent and descent, as well as take part in balloon-related activities – including undergoing the unique experience of travelling in one of these balloons themselves.
Other events at this Dubai festival will include musical performances and photography contests, with a number of vendors setting up stalls to satisfy hankerings for food and drink.
Thousands of people from across the globe are expected to visit Dubai, both to attend the festival and to sample the wider joys of one of the Middle East's most popular destinations.
