Dubai Police warn of fake links and copycat sites selling discounted Global Village VIP packs.
These scams pop up every year, targeting the hype around one of Dubai’s biggest attractions and tricking people into handing over money and personal info.
Police remind that tickets and packages can only be purchased from Global Village’s official site, app, and authorized outlets. VIP packs are exclusive to the Coca-Cola Arena website.
Residents should avoid suspicious deals, unknown links, and report concerns via the e-Crime platform or call 901. This helps protect your money and identity and ensures you get genuine tickets for the upcoming season.
The warning comes as excitement ramps up for Global Village Season 30, kicking off this autumn for a major milestone.
>The outdoor mega-event reopens on Wednesday, October 15, 2025, and runs through Sunday, May 10, 2026, celebrating 30 years of food, culture, and unforgettable nightly entertainment under the stars.
Last season had 10.5 million visitors; organisers say this anniversary edition will be “bigger and better” with the lineup soon.
So, how do you book safely?
Planning to visit? Buy tickets only through official channels: Global Village’s website/app for general entry, and Coca-Cola Arena for Season 30 VIP packs.
Any other links, especially those in group chats or social media promising “exclusive discounts,” are red flags. When in doubt, go straight to the official sites instead of clicking third-party links.
