8 brilliant things to do in Dubai this week

Let’s head outdoors…

It’s the start of a brand new week here in Dubai and as always, we’re here to bring you the very best things to do in Dubai this week. From a classic movie on the sand to a new mid-week lunch deal and a spa offer for you and your bestie, we’ve rounded up eight amazing things to do in Dubai this week.

Sunday October 4

1. Catch a movie on the beach

One alfresco activity that we simply love is an outdoor cinema, and guess what? They’re back. Stalwart Dubai beach club Zero Gravity hosts one of the most popular on-the-beach cinema events: Cinema on the Sand. It’s back on Sunday, October 4, from 8pm, with a screening of 1970’s classic, Grease, bringing you all of the jiving and sing-along fun. Entry to the venue is Dhs75, which is fully redeemable on food and beverage – so bring on the popcorn.

Zero Gravity, Dubai Marina, Skydive Dubai Drop Zone, Sunday, October 4, 8pm, Dhs75 redeemable on food and beverage. Tel: (04) 399 0009. 0-gravity.ae

2. Enjoy a sushi-fuelled ladies’ night

On Sundays at Miss Tess, you can take advantage of unlimited sushi for a kind-to-the-purse-strings Dhs98. A happy hour runs from 6pm to 8pm, with selected drinks priced from Dhs38. It’s pretty much a no brainer, especially if you’re not ready yet to say goodbye to the weekend.

3. Celebrate World Teacher’s Day

If you’re a teacher in Dubai, you deserve a medal. Although we don’t have any on us right now, we can tell you about a special event in your honour. The newly opened Palm Bay at Club Vista Mare is offering a 20 per cent discount to all teachers on Monday October 5. The discount applies to the full food and beverage bill so feel free to relax and enjoy the celebration – just don’t forget your teacher ID card.

Acclaimed chef Joël Robuchon is set to open his 12th restaurant this week, on Tuesday October 6. Found in DIFC, close to Shanghai Me, the high-end French restaurant joins a list of Michelin starred outlets around the world by the famous chef. Across the Joël Robuchon portfolio, restaurants have a total of 31 Michelin stars, the most of any chef in the world. So, we’ve got high expectations for the Dubai outpost. Robuchon’s protege, Axel Manes, will be the Dubai restaurant’s executive chef.
