DUBAI // Shopping malls in the emirate will not be opening for 24 hours during the Eid Al Fitr celebrations.

Dubai’s Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing told The National that there would be no all-night shopping at the end of Ramadan.

Last year seven malls in Dubai stayed open for 48 hours on the first weekend of Eid Al Adha, which is the second of the Eid holidays held after Eid Al Fitr.

It was part of the emirate’s Eid in Dubai Shopping Festival.
