The competition was fierce for “Best Pavilion.” Iran’s captivating portrayal of its vibrant culture earned them the coveted Gold trophy. Afghanistan and Egypt followed closely behind, showcasing the diverse tapestry of cultures Global Village offers.

Memorable performances weren’t overlooked! The Europe Pavilion’s cultural show stole the hearts of audiences, winning first place for “Best Cultural Show.” Meanwhile, the intricate craftsmanship showcased in the Iran Pavilion secured them the top spot in “Best Craftsmanship.”

From casual bites to sit-down feasts, Global Village has something for every taste bud. This year, Belgrave emerged victorious in the “Best Restaurant” category, followed by Persian Kebab and Etisleri. For kiosk cravings, Lasagne took the “Best Global Village Kiosk” crown, with Cola Ribs and Umm Ali rounding out the top three. Coffee aficionados also found their champions, with Coterra winning “Best Coffee Shop” and Baskin Robins and Café Anatolia taking the next two spots.

Global Village recognizes the importance of supporting small businesses. Tushiz took home the Gold trophy in the “Best SME Kiosk” category, showcasing the success of innovative entrepreneurs.

But the real stars of the show are often the experiences themselves! A D Burger in Happiness Street was voted “Guests’ Favourite Kiosk,” followed by Lazio and Churros. Social media buzz played a role too, with Lazagne crowned the “Most Viral Kiosk,” with Tantuni and Flat Burger close behind.

The ceremony wasn’t just about individual awards.
