Be part of the Festival of Learning
The biggest interactive learning festival for 0 to 10 year olds, hosted by Happy Families with Times Square Center. Thousands of families. Your chance to partner up.
This is not an education expo. It is not a trade show. It is not rows of stands for parents to walk around. It is a hands-on, interactive festival of learning for children and the parents, carers and nannies who bring them. You are the talent!
- Free entry
- Free coffee
- Free parking
- Target footfall 700+
- Ages 0 to 10
Hosted by Principal Lisa, Most Loved Parenting Consultant in the UAE 2026
Put your brand in front of thousands of UAE families
Happy Families is one of the UAE's trusted, award-winning family brands. Parents aged 25 to 45, mostly mums, raising young children in Dubai. They don't just follow Lisa. They come to her events and act on her recommendations.

A YES space
Interactive first
Children experience, explore, create and play rather than simply being told about something.
Learning through doing
Activities designed to spark curiosity, creativity and discovery.
Built for families
An experience children genuinely want to attend, with something meaningful for the adults too.
Community led
Connecting families with the people, brands and organisations enriching their children's lives.
Choose how you want to show up
A simple pricing structure so every brand can be part of the Festival of Learning. Book and pay securely online, and Lisa will be in touch personally to plan your space.
Be There
For small businesses and growing brands. Secure your space, meet families face to face and be part of a warm, community-focused event.
Bring something lovely for the children, an activity, game, demonstration or thoughtful giveaway, and Lisa may upgrade you to a larger or more prominent space.
More Space
Double the space. A larger footprint to display, demonstrate, talk to families and create a space that feels like you.
Perfect if you have more products, want room for a small interactive element, or simply want a stronger presence on the day.

Think experience, not just sales
The Festival of Learning is an active, welcoming community event, not a traditional exhibition where brands simply stand behind a table. By booking your space, you are agreeing to join us in creating an experience families will genuinely enjoy and remember.
- Help us spread the word. Promote your involvement through your own social media, website, newsletters and community networks. We'll provide Festival artwork for you to use.
- Come ready to get involved. Talk to people, step out from your space, demonstrate what you do. Tag us, reshare content, create reels and meet other brands.
- It's a community experience first. We ask brands not to approach the day as a hard-sell retail event. Families can be directed to your website, QR code or booking link.
- Give families something to do. A demonstration, game, mini activity, creative station, sample or meaningful giveaway. Interactive brands are remembered.
- Know what you want from the day. Sales, new families, brand awareness, social following, feedback, testing a new product or building relationships.
- Grow your community. A raffle, competition, QR code or "Follow Us" board. Please make sure any data collection follows your own privacy obligations.
- Bring your existing community. Invite your customers and followers to come and see you.
- Inclusivity matters. Happy Families events are designed to welcome all families.
