It’s the one we’ve all been waiting for. The Dubai Shopping Festival’s (DSF) raffles and prizes are no doubt part of the most exciting and highly anticipated events of the festival. And the prizes this year don’t disappoint.
 
A number of exciting raffles have been confirmed, with more expected to be announced by individual retailers. DSF runs until February 1.
 
“As part of the shopping experience, the 21st edition of DSF will provide some of the world’s best entertainment including music superstars, and global fashion brand events. Of course the traditional attractions will continue to pull visitors such as fireworks shows and the DSF Mega Raffles,” says Laila Mohammad Suhail, CEO of Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment.
 
“In fact, the winning pillar of DSF has paid rich dividends for the festival as the daily raffle draws over the years have had a huge impact on the lives of thousands of people from all over the world.”
 
So what’s up for grabs this year? Read on to find out.
 
New year shopping
 
This promotion — set to take place today from noon to midnight — will see private sales offering massive discounts of up to 90 per cent at all retailers in Mall of the Emirates, and the City Centres in Deira, Mirdif and Me‘aisem. Every Dh200 spent lets shoppers enter a draw to win a shopping spree worth Dh50,000, courtesy of Majid Al Futtaim Malls. The draw takes place at 12pm tomorrow at Mall of the Emirates.
 
Winfiniti 
 
The annual Infiniti Mega Raffle returns. One shopper a day will drive home in a swanky Infiniti QX70 and Dh200,000 cash, with the promo running until February 6. Raffle tickets cost Dh200 and are available from selected Eppco and Enoc petrol stations, as well as Al Ghurair Centre, Global Village and the Gold Souk. Daily draws take place at Global Village at 10pm.
 
Nissan mega raffle
 
Every day, one of eight Nissan models — the Micra, Sunny, Sentra, Tiida Hatchback, X-Trail, Juke, Pathfinder or Patrol — will go to a winner during a 10pm draw at Global Village. Raffle tickets are available on purchases of non-fuel products worth Dh20 plus at Enoc and Eppco stations, as well as Zoom shops in Dubai.
 
All that glitters…
 
Visit Dubai’s gold and jewellery retailers for a chance to win gold. Look out for promotion stickers on the windows of participating outlets.
 
Shop, play, win
 
Visitors to select community malls will be entered into a raffle draw to win a Nissan Pathfinder every time they spend Dh200. But that’s all; a special Play & Win kiosk is offering instant prizes for those who spend Dh1,000 or more.
 
More gold!
 
Four lucky winners will walk away with 200g of gold during weekly gold draws at selected community malls. The final winner — who will be picked on the final day of DSF — will receive 1kg of gold.
 
The red envelope 
 
For every Dh750 spent at Paris Gallery, shoppers could walk away with gift vouchers worth up to Dh10,000 or a discount voucher of 10 per cent off their next purchase. n
