January 23, 2019

With the first month of 2019 coming to an end, we’re here to remind you that there is still sooo much more to look forward to this year! From famous beach clubs and film festivals to gigantic libraries and open-air shopping malls, here are all the cool things coming to Dubai this 2019…

1. Mohammed bin Rashid Library

Calling all bookworms! The long-awaited Mohammed bin Rashid Library, designed in the shape of the rehl, a book rest commonly used for placing the Holy Quran, is almost complete! Set to open later this year in Al Jadaf, the library will be home to over 4.5 million books, e-books and audio books, as well as a 500-seated auditorium and an art gallery.

2. Royal Atlantis Resort

The Royal Atlantis Resort is a luxurious new development on Palm Jumeirah and it looks incredible! It may look like a giant game of jenga, but the hotel’s design was actually inspired by ancient civilizations and their architectural wonders.

3. Sky 2.0

Ever partied in Beirut? If so, you’ll be glad to know that popular nightclub Sky Bar is coming to Dubai! If it’s anything like the Beirut branch, we can expect an insane line-up of artist to perform at this massive open-air venue. Sky 2.0 is set to open in Dubai Design District this year, opposite Base Dubai.

It’s almost here! With a capacity for 20,000 people, the Dubai Arena at City Walk will play host to everything from sporting events to theatre shows and music concerts. Beyoncé, we hope you’re reading this…
