DUBAI: Jaden and Willow Smith, Nancy Ajram and Arab teen star Hala Turk are among the celebrities who will join in this year’s edition of Dubai Summer Surprises, which will kick off on July 23.

Under the slogan, “45 Days of Summer,” DSS 2015 is offering residents and visitors the opportunity to enjoy a diverse range of events, from international celebrity appearances and shows to world premieres featuring internationally renowned children’s cartoon characters, in addition to summer promotions that reward shoppers with millions of dirhams worth of prizes.
Children can also look forward to appearances by Bugs Bunny, Tweety and Sylvester, the Power Rangers, Sonic the Hedgehog and Gumball during this year’s family extravaganza.
“Every year, we strive to offer our visitors and residents something new and exciting. For the 18th edition of DSS, we have raised the bar further in terms of innovative events including appearances and acts by global and regional celebrities, who will perform under our DSS Starz series, in addition to world premieres by much loved children’s entertainment characters,” Laila Mohammed Suhail, the CEO of DFRE told Gulf News.
Arab superstar Ajram will perform at a concert that will promote both Dubai Summer Surprises and Modhesh World. Nancy will be singing all her favorite songs dedicated to children, bringing smiles on their faces.
Teen star Hala Turk is the winner of many contests including first place at an innovative children’s festival. Hala has three songs to her credit in a hugely popular children’s album released in July 2011.
During this year’s Dubai Summer Surprises, Hala will be making an appearance at Modhesh World this summer to entertain families from around the world. DSS was launched in 1998 to position Dubai as an international summer destination.
The festival is one of the highlights of the city’s summer calendar with GCC residents and other tourists flocking to the city, looking for bargains in over 6,000 stores that are participating in this annual event.
