Answer 1

Hi,

Dubai Shopping Festival:

like it was said before, due to the death of Sheik Maktoum bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) got cancelled in 2006.

While in 1998, the number of visitor's increases to be 2.3 in the same period, and in 1999, the event attracted 2,4 million visitors in 28 days. The fifth cycle witnesses a high growth in its visitors, which end at 25 million visitors during 31-day only and 2.55 visitors in 2001. In 2002, the number increase to reach 2.68 in 31 festival days. Dubai shopping festival 2003, attracted the larges number of visitors, one could say, it was the best among other cycle since it recorded the highest number: 2.92 million visitors in more than 32 festival days.

2005 DSF had it's best year ever and attracted more than 3.3 million visitors.
