7 wonderful things to do in Dubai this week: August 29 to September 1

We’ve done the leg work to make your week amazing…

Another week has arrived, and with it come a host of fun things to do in the city. This week, we have a selection of hot spots for you to try, from bars to cooking classes and more. Here are our top picks for things to do in Dubai this week.

Sunday August 29

1. Work from a boozy remote office

If you like to end your working day with a tipple, McGettigan’s JLT has made it even easier for you, with the launch of its brand new working space. The office has seating for up to four people plus a sound-insulated room so you can still take private calls without the risk of being caught ‘out of office’. A two-hour session will cost Dhs499, including a beer unit providing eight litres of beer.

McGettigan’s, Bonnington Hotel, Cluster J, JLT, Sunday to Thursday, 12pm to 10pm, Dhs499. mcgettigans.com/the-office

2. Indulge in unlimited sushi

The recently revamped Seven Sisters has a brand new sushi night. For two hours you’ll be able to enjoy unlimited sushi and an open bar for Dhs195, or add on bottomless bubbles for Dhs270. There are two seatings to choose from every Monday, so you can pick 8pm to 10pm for a memorable evening once the sun goes down, or 10pm to 12am, if you’re not worried about waking up early the next day.
