DUBAI- This summer, the Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment is bringing to the city some of the world’s best-loved entertainment characters for their highly anticipated World Premiere performances.

From toddlers to grandparents – visitors of all ages can look forward to a number of games and hand-on activities covering science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics that will transform learning into an enjoyable and engaging adventure.
Those looking to add bursts of sci-fi fun into their Eid celebrations can head to the TRANSFORMERS Interactive Experience at Modhesh World from the first day of Eid to 8 September. Children (above six years) and teenagers can gear up to put their hand-eye coordination, fine motor, spatial and problem-solving skills to test at the number of activities and games setup within the zone. It is the perfect opportunity for fans to learn more about their favourite action heroes before they get up close and personal with them at BurJuman soon after.
The World Premiere of The Decepticon Clone TRANSFORMERS live show marks an exciting beginning to the DSS celebrations at BurJuman. From 31 July until 9 August, the almost eight-feet tall Cybertronians, including OPTIMUS PRIME, MEGATRON and BUMBLEBEE will descend upon the mall to enthral shoppers with their first-ever world performance, followed by plenty of meet and greet opportunities. From sci-fi action and special effects to a soaring stage designed exclusively for the Autobots, there is a lot to watch out for at the mall this summer. The three daily shows will be held at 6pm, 7:30pm and 8:50pm.
