In the spirit of this 30th-anniversary milestone, DSF is also debuting “The Uncommon x DSF” at Al Marmoom, where guests can enjoy serene desert experiences with stargazing, outdoor cinema, and Oud music, creating a magical atmosphere under the stars. Popular returning experiences include *CanteenX*, a vibrant dining and cultural pop-up, and the *Hatta x DSF* retreat at Hatta Wadi Hub, featuring scenic landscapes, cozy fireside settings, and weekend fireworks displays. Another new addition, the DSF Auto Season, will showcase a range of high-end vehicles and host parades across the city, catering to car enthusiasts.

Shoppers will have access to major sales and exclusive promotions across over 1,000 brands at DSF’s renowned retail extravaganza, which also includes prize-winning raffles and special discounts.
