This Sunday, October 25, 2020, Dubai’s Global Village is set to reopen. It’ll also mark the seasoned destination’s 25th anniversary.
Of course, in order to ensure the safety of both employees and the public, there will be strict health and safety precautions in place.
Ahead of its reopening, Dubai Media Office issued a statement outlining the list of “strict precautionary health measures in place as Dubai’s Global Village is set to open on October 25, for its 25th season”.
This includes guests wearing masks at all times; two-metre social distancing at all times; thermal screenings; regular disinfection of areas; and more.

In addition, thermal cameras will be used, rides will run at a reduced capacity and there will be more than 600 sanitisation stations.
Ahead of Global Village’s reopening Ali Al Suwaidi, Chief Operating Officer, said that the wellbeing of guests took precedent over anything.
“We are proud of our strong health and safety record and strive to set benchmarks for our industry,” he said. “We became the first theme park in the world to win the ‘Sword of Honour’ accreditation for safety management excellence from the British Safety Council and continue to work alongside international bodies such as the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA).”
