Commenting on the upcoming Diwali, Dubai Duty Free Managing Director Ramesh Cidambi said, “Indian travellers have always been pivotal to Dubai Duty Free’s success, accounting for 13-14% of our business and accounting for around 13% of passenger traffic at Dubai International Airport. With Diwali being the most significant festival for Indian nationals all over the world, it is a great opportunity for us to join in the celebrations and to mark this special occasion.”<\/em><\/p>\n Diwali themed areas are in place throughout the retail operation, featuring the most popular products, while Indian staff will dress in traditional attire to add to the authentic atmosphere.<\/p>\n Dubai Duty Free is also gearing up for a Diwali celebration on 30th October, which will be attended by H.E. Satish Kumar Sivan, Indian Consul General to Dubai. His Excellency will join Ramesh Cidambi for a ceremonial lighting of Diwali lamps, a traditional Indian dance performance and cake cutting, which will be followed by the popular Millennium Millionaire and Finest Surprise draws.<\/strong><\/p>\n Diwali – the Indian Festival of Lights, is celebrated every autumn in the northern hemisphere (spring in southern hemisphere). It is one of the most popular festivals of Hinduism, which symbolises the spiritual ‘victory of light over darkness, good over evil and knowledge over ignorance.’ It is also a period of gift giving to show love and affection to family members and friends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" To mark the upcoming Diwali Festival, Dubai Duty Free has rolled out a series of special promotions including the chance to win one of ten […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":75828,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2597,535,1,477],"tags":[497,377,7127,15351,149,1740,69,39,15352,216],"class_list":["post-75827","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-best-selling-brands-in-duty-free","category-duty-free-retailers","category-latest-news","category-latest-promotions-in-duty-free","tag-airport-duty-free","tag-airport-shopping","tag-al-maktoum-international-airport","tag-diwali-gold-promotion","tag-dubai-duty-free","tag-dubai-international-airport","tag-duty-free","tag-dutyfree","tag-festival-of-lights","tag-travel-retail"],"acf":[],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75827","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=75827"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75827\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":75869,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75827\/revisions\/75869"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/75828"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=75827"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=75827"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=75827"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
