Dubai might not see the magic of snow in December (or ever!) but that doesn’t mean we don’t make the festive season truly magical!

From meeting Santa, decorating the tree, listening to Christmas carols, and taking pictures with loved ones, Wafi City is taking you on a Celebrations Around The World, this holiday season, whilst benefiting Rashid Centre for People of Determination.

Wafi City is the ultimate festive celebratory destination as it hosts ecstatic activities for people of all ages!

Meet Santa, get a gift, listen to your FAVE X-Mas tunes, and make some memories

Kris Fade, being one of the first to take part in the Wafi Cares Program, has set the tone with the opening ceremony on December 8 from 6pm. The Virgin Radio show host was alongside the Dubai British School choir perform as the 52-feet-tall Christmas tree lit up in all glory. You can now get up close to the large tree from the elevated viewing deck!

The festive holidays are a magical time filled with joy and togetherness that people celebrate everywhere, and this year, Celebration Around the World at Wafi City aims to achieve exactly that.

As you walk around with a delicious cup of hot chocolate in hand, stop to take a selfie with the Eiffel Tower, Taj Mahal, Leaning Tower of Pisa and see how their countries celebrate the holiday season!

Santa’s Grotto just got an amazing upgrade and if you’ve got tickets, you’ll get exclusive access to the Elve’s playground, get a glimpse of how the presents are made at the Toy Factory, and gain access to the 2-storey Santa’s Grotto where you can meet Santa! Santa will be gifting you a one-of-a-kind gift that’s customised with your name and a framed photo of your meeting that you can cherish forever!

What better way to get into the holiday spirit than with musicians and singers performing all your favourite Christmas tunes on the weekends? All the children on the good list will have FREE access to the Kid’s Workshop where they can create whimsical decorations that’ll go on the Christmas tree or they can write a personalised card for when they visit Santa.

This season is all about giving to those in need

The holiday season is known as the season of giving and that’s why Wafi City have launched their Wafi Cares Program. They’re partnering up with Rashid Centre for People of Determination to make the holidays that much more meaningful!

With the purchase of every Santa’s Grotto ticket (AED65), AED5 will be donated to the foundation! You could also partake in the season of giving by buying toys at the Wafi Cares gift shop. You could purchase toys for whichever amount you see fit and the toys will then be donated to the children in need from Rashid Centre for People of Determination.
