Gitex Shopper 2019 is set to open its doors at the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) on Tuesday, September 24, 2019, with a collection of carefully curated deals and promotions for shoppers looking to get their hands on the latest gadgets.

The highly anticipated consumer electronics event will also feature daily prizes, giveaways, and interactive experiences to keep electronic fans of all ages entertained.

“The appeal of bumper deals, unbeatable promotions on the latest electronics and a raft of additional try-before-you-buy experiences across the show floor ensure Gitex Shopper continues to attract visitors year after year,” said Trixie LohMirmand, senior vice president, DWTC, the event organiser. “Smart home products will take centre-stage this year via a dedicated zone, which enhances the shopper experience and provides visitors with added support to aid in the purchasing process.”

The show will open daily from 11:00 am – 11:00 pm, with tickets priced at Dh20. Children under the age of five enter free, while student groups of 50 and above can get tickets at Dh10 per student. Creating even more convenience, visitors spending more than Dh300 will get six hours of free parking at DWTC.

Following its runaway success last year, the Gitex Shopper Trade-in also returns this year. The initiative rewards visitors with vouchers to spend during the exhibition when they recycle their unused electronics during a five-day amnesty. Also returning to the event are the Shopper Games, which will feature numerous PC and console tournaments throughout the five-day event, with exhibitors offering exclusive discounts and deals on products and accessories to meet gamers’ demands. In a dedicated zone aimed at bringing additional enjoyment to younger visitors, Gitex Shopper has partnered with Kidzania to host a range of activities each day of the show with face painting, arts and crafts, and painting on offer throughout.

In partnership with Jumbo Electronics, the new Shopper Smart Hub will showcase smart home products, including new connectivity, security, automation and entertainment launches from various household brands. In addition to exclusive products, bundles and offers, the dedicated zone will be staffed by experts to advise and provide tips on the best products for every need.
