Keeping with tradition, Global Village will ring in the New Year, not once, but seven times.
The celebrations will kick-off at 8:00 pm on the Main Stage to mark the NYE countdown for China. It will then mark the new year in Thailand at 9:00 pm, Bangladesh at 10:00 pm, India at 10:30 pm, Pakistan at 11:00 pm, UAE at midnight, and finally Turkey at 1:00 am.
Each stroke of midnight will be celebrated with its own dedicated countdown and a breathtaking firework display that's signature to Global Village.
But that's not all! For those seeking more than seven countdowns, Global Village offers an exploration of over 90 diverse cultures, an expansive array of over 3,500 shopping outlets, more than 250 dining options, performances from 40+ countries, and over 195 rides, games, and attractions.
Gates open at 4:00 pm and opening hours have been extended until 1:00 am from December 24 to December 30, and until 2:00 am on December 31.
