The municipality has set the timing of ‘Ramadan Souq’ between 10AM and

Deep-Rooted Markets
Deira’s historical markets hold significant prominence as traditional
commercial hubs, dating back to the 19th century. These markets have
undergone restoration, rehabilitation, and classification based on their types.
Among them is the Grand Souq in Bur Deira, famously known as the ‘Al
Dhalam Souq’ or Darkness Market, renowned for its diverse range of
products. Additionally, there is the Plates Market, which offers kitchen
essentials like pots and trays.
These markets further include a men’s fabrics market and ‘Souq Al Manazer,’
which sells diverse goods. Additionally, there is the ‘Al-Matarih Market,’
dedicated to the sale of armchairs and pillows (tikki). Other notable markets
within the area include the food market, marine tools market, ‘Souq Al Khilak’
for fabrics, perfume market, and the gold market.
Dubai Municipality organizes the annual ‘Ramadan Souq’ event as part of its
ongoing initiatives and endeavors to support tourism, entertainment, and
commercial activities within the emirate. This effort aims to attract investments
and enhance the demand for Dubai’s public attractions and various
entertainment venues.
