A time to celebrate tradition with family visits, feasts and, for children, the excitement of receiving Eideya (money) from immediate family members, The Dubai Mall honours another very special seasonal ritual, with an opportunity to meet and spend time with Sheibitna.

The grandfatherly figure who celebrates Eid by telling stories and sharing seasonal treats with the children, this wise and generous character will be brought to life from 11-14 August as part of an initiative to encourage interaction between the elderly and the general public. Real-life grandfathers from seniors' homes across the UAE will add their own unique voices to this enchanting experience.

Enjoy an additional offer while you're at The Dubai Mall – if you spend AED20,000, you'll receive an additional 2,000 Skywards Miles as a reward.
