The Dubai 3 Day Super Sale (3DSS) concluded another standout edition after delivering strong retail performance across malls, brands and shopping districts.<\/p>\n

\n

Organised by Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment (DFRE), the event drew participation from more than 500 brands and over 2,000 outlets.<\/p>\n

For the first time in its history, the festival was extended to five days to accommodate heightened seasonal demand during the 54th Eid Al Etihad<\/a>. Early indicators show double-digit growth in consumer spending compared with the same period last year.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s edition also delivered a major uplift in late-night and overnight purchasing during Dubai\u2019s first-ever 24 Hour Sale, held exclusively at Dubai Festival City Mall<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Retailers across the mall reported a 19 per cent increase in footfall and a 36 per cent rise in sales compared with the same period last year.<\/p>\n

Fashion spending grew 55 per cent, while dining spending rose 16 per cent, underscoring strong consumer appetite for extended-hours shopping formats and enabling brands to capture incremental sales outside traditional peak periods.<\/p>\n

Mohamed Feras, Acting Vice President \u2013 Retail Calendar and Promotions at DFRE, said: \u201cThe 3 Day Super Sale remains one of Dubai\u2019s most dynamic retail moments, driving powerful consumer engagement, strong commercial uplift, and sustained momentum for the city\u2019s retail sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cExtending the festival to five days in celebration of the 54th Eid Al Etihad, and introducing the city\u2019s first-ever 24 Hour Sale, allowed us to create new touchpoints for engagement that drove higher footfall, stronger spending, and exceptional value for residents and visitors alike.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese results reflect Dubai\u2019s continued strength as a global retail hub and reinforce our commitment to enhancing the city\u2019s competitiveness and economic impact in line with the ambitions of the D33 agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rising fashion spend<\/h4>\n

Hayssam Hajjar, Executive Director \u2013 Regional Malls at Al-Futtaim Real Estate, said: \u201cThe 3 Day Super Sale has once again proven to be a game-changer for Dubai\u2019s retail landscape, driving record-breaking footfall, increased sales, and heightened consumer spending across our city.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year\u2019s extended celebration, including the first-ever 24-Hour Sale, not only unlocked extraordinary savings for shoppers but also created a vibrant atmosphere that energized our malls and communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe overwhelming response, shown by a 19 per cent increase in footfall and a 36 per cent surge in sales compared to the same period last year, demonstrates the vital role festivals like the 3 Day Super Sale play in accelerating growth.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdditionally, fashion spending rose by 55 per cent and dining spending by 16 per cent compared to last year, going to show how initiatives like the 3 Day Super Sale are supporting Dubai\u2019s position as a global retail hub. As we continue to innovate and deliver exceptional experiences, we look forward to building on this momentum and driving even greater impact in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

With strong performance across major malls, retail groups and loyalty platforms, the extended 3DSS delivered a significant boost to Dubai\u2019s retail sector and concluded the 54th Eid Al Etihad weekend on a high-impact commercial note.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
