São Paulo – For the first time, the emirate of Dubai is hosting the Big Bad Wolf Book Sale. Over 3 million books in English and Arabic and spanning all literary genres will be on offer, with discounts in the 50%-80% range. Some 300,000 people are expected to attend.
The sale, which began this Thursday (18), will go on 24/7 until October 28 at the Sound Stage Venue, in Dubai Studio City. This is the first time the event is held in the Middle East. The first-ever edition took place in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 2009, with other editions in Indonesia, the Philippines and Thailand, Gulf Business reported.
Suggestions on the event’s website include bringing “your own bags/boxes, lots of cash…and a great attitude; wearing light, loose, comfortable clothing and shoes; and avoiding peak hours for maximum shopping comfort”.
