As a Filipino who grew up with the magic of Santa Claus and the glow of parols, the holiday season has always been a time of joy and nostalgia. Living in Dubai, I often find myself searching for a touch of that festive magic. And thankfully, Wafi Mall has always been a go-to every Christmas season with one of the most enchanting Christmas installations in the city—the Festive Circus.
What to Expect at the Festive Circus
Festive Circus offers whimsical entertainment and captivating decor. The Festive Circus features acrobats, jugglers, clowns, and more, offering thrilling shows that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Complementing the performances is the mall’s stunning holiday decor—complete with twinkling lights, oversized ornaments, and a giant Christmas tree that makes the perfect backdrop for your holiday photos. Kids can dive into ball pits, enjoy the stunning festive areas, and of course meet-and-greets with Santa Claus. Meanwhile, adults can explore the holiday market for unique gifts or indulge in seasonal treats.
