Belated answer for Freewheel: I only saw one girl there (and she was having a grand time with her dad). I’d say the local Muslim custom *does* have something to do with it, but I’d also ascribe some it to girls generally having more sense than boys at that age (and thus not tossing themselves into a sea of humanity for fun).

Appears to be all boys. Does local or Muslim custom prevent the girls from joining in?
