"This year, the focus is more on cultural shows and events," said Ahmad Hussain bin Essa, CEO of Global Village.
"Last year, we observed that around 55 per cent of our guests were more keen on watching the shows and performances. Taking that into account, we have incorporated more international and in-house shows this year. We are expecting 5.3 million guests to turn up of which 25 per cent would be tourists and 75 per cent residents like last year. We are also expecting an increase of 3.5 per cent in the sales transactions in 2016," he added.
With an objective of making it a completely entertainment and power-packed show, the Global Village team has come up with a few outstanding additions.
