Residents and tourists in Dubai can look forward to the many lucrative prizes on offer this Dubai Shopping Festival. Many of the event's visitors are looking forward for the festival to give their lives a boost! Apart from the many rewards organizers of the festival have announced already, various shopping malls are also giving away valuable awards that include holidays, shopping vouchers and luxury cars.

Mercato and its sister mall Town Centre Jumeirah were among the first malls who set the trend of rewarding devoted customers. This year is no different. Both malls are jointly running a fabulous Spend-2-Win promotion that will be topped with grand prizes too. For every spend of Dhs 200 in any outlet of either mall, in accumulated or single purchase receipts, customers can enter a draw to win one of two fabulous Infiniti cars. To reinforce the spirit of winning in Mercato and Town Centre Jumeirah, the excitement will start mid- festival on 3rd February when the malls draw their first grand prize: an Infiniti M 37. The Infiniti FX 35 awaits the second lucky winner end of the festival on 20th February.

Additionally, PrivilegePlus members (Mercato and Town Centre Jumeirah Loyalty Program Members) who present their PrivilegePlus card to the Customer Service staff when claiming their coupons will be rewarded with an extra coupon to double their chances of winning.

"It has been recognized worldwide that the Dubai Shopping Festival is synonymous with winning mega prizes, and such, we thought to reward our patron customers and loyal shoppers who frequent our malls on a daily basis. Last two festivals saw residents and tourists equally win our grand prizes, so there are no parameters when it comes to luck. Everybody could be a winner", said Rana Jaser, PR and Corporate Communications Manager of Mercato and Town Centre Jumeirah.

As many families from around the globe have checked in the neighboring hotels and resorts, Mercato witnessed a significant footfall increase since the first day of the festival. The number of visitors is expected to soar in the coming days as the mall is hosting many exciting events under the title "Marie Antoinette era". In keeping up with the era, and to animate its beautiful architecture, Mercato has been decorated to represent a part of the famous Palace of Versailles! Stage shows like Waltz and Ballet, musical performances and roaming acts will ensure to keep the crowds entertained while on their visit to the mall.

Mercato has extended its working timings on weekends until midnight to give the opportunity to Dubai's guests to avail the festival's discounts and enjoy the Mall's festivities.
