If one countdown isn’t enough for you or you just can’t wait until midnight, how about ringing in the New Year seven times in one night on December 31! That’s what guests will be able to do this New Year’s Eve as Global Village, the UAE and wider region's leading multicultural family destination for culture, shopping, and entertainment, counts down to midnight from seven different time zones from around the world.
The New Year celebrations kick-off at 8pm local time on the Main Stage, coinciding with midnight in the Philippines before moving to Thailand (9pm), Bangladesh (10pm), India (10.30pm), Pakistan (11pm), UAE (12am) and finishing with Turkey (1am). Each midnight will have its own dedicated countdown and signature Global Village firework display.
Shaun Cornell, Director of Entertainment at Global Village said, “This December 31 we’re inviting everyone to head down to Global Village with family and friends for a New Year’s Eve unlike any other. With seven midnights in one night and celebrations running throughout the evening with tons of entertainment at the Main Stage, around the park and in the sky, Global Village guests are in for a night to remember.”
