One evening at Global Village rarely feels like enough. There’s always another pavilion to explore or a food stall you didn’t get to. This weekend, the park is giving you a reason to come back the next day, and it won’t cost you another ticket.
How the Offer Works
Global Village is offering a free visit on Saturday, November 7 to everyone who bought a ticket on Friday, November 6.
Here are the steps:
- Buy your ticket on November 6
- Keep that ticket safe
- Arrive at Global Village on November 7
- Show your November 6 ticket at the Information Booth at the Gate of the World
- Collect your complimentary ticket
The Catch: Only 3,100 Tickets
The free tickets are limited. Only 3,100 are available, and they go on a first-come, first-served basis. The complimentary ticket is also valid only on November 7, so you can’t save it for another weekend.
If you plan to use the offer, go early on the 7th. And don’t throw away your ticket from the 6th, because you’ll need it to claim the free one.
The source doesn’t say what a regular ticket costs or whether buying several tickets earns several free ones, so check with the park if you’re going as a group.
What’s On This Weekend
The timing is good, because the park is celebrating Diwali from November 6 to 10. The programme includes a 600-drone display, five days of cultural performances, festive shopping, and family activities.
A few dates to note:
- November 6: A Baithak, which is an interactive traditional South Asian musical gathering
- November 7: Interactive games where you can win prizes
- November 8: The Diwali light show at 8 pm
So if you go on the 6th and come back on the 7th, you’ll see two different sides of the celebrations.
Ideas for Your Two Visits
Since you can visit twice, try splitting your plans. On the first night, walk through the pavilions, enjoy the Baithak, and eat your way through the food stalls. On the second night, you could join the games and try to win a prize and pick up festive gifts in a more relaxed way.
If you’d like to catch the light show on November 8 as well, you’ll need a separate ticket, since the free one is valid only for the 7th.
Tips Before You Go
Weekends at Global Village get busy, so arrive early, especially on the 7th when the free tickets are limited. Wear comfortable shoes, because there’s a lot of walking. Keep your ticket from the 6th in a safe place, such as a pocket or your phone case. Without it, you can’t claim the free entry.

Free entry is a nice bonus, but the limit of 3,100 means you shouldn’t leave it to chance. Buy your ticket on November 6, keep it safe, and head to the Information Booth at the Gate of the World early on November 7. Then enjoy a second evening of Diwali fun.
