7 awesome things to do in Dubai this weekend
Lucky Voice Dubai Brunch
If you haven’t been to their Friday brunch yet, you are missing out. The always buzzing joint is perfect for karaoke lovers and those who like a good party. The venue’s resident band Game Over will be providing the tunes while you prepare your vocal chords over a number of classic pub bites and DIY mixes. Once you’re ready to sing your heart out, you can do so in a private pod (you need to book one, to do so).
When: 1pm to 4pm
Where: Grand Millennium Hotel, Barsha Heights
Price: From AED195
Contact: 800 58259,
White Noise #5
If dark, industrial techno is your thing, then the latest White Noise night will be up your dimly-lit alley. Osmosis, the performance moniker of White Noise founder Kareem El Dasher, will be unleashing his detuned, mechanical electro, while Der Abyss will add some goth-tinged EBM DJ set. They’ll then both team up for twin DJ set from 1.30am.
When: Thursday, July 6, 9pm-3am
Where: Casa Latina, Ibis Hotel

La Familia Brunch
If the summer heat is putting a damper on your time spent outdoors, El Chiringuito might just be the answer. The chic laid-back venue’s Saturday brunch is not only great value for money, its outdoor space is also glass protected.
Aside from uninterrupted views of the Arabian Gulf, guests can expect to enjoy a number of locally and internationally sourced Mediterranean dishes such as seafood paella, Cotoletta alla Milanese and Terrine octopus a la Gallega.
Once the clock strikes 4pm, the venue takes on a livelier party vibe reminiscent to that found in the party loving island of Ibiza. El Chiringuito’s in-house DJ takes the decks while guests make their way to the temperature controlled pool.
When: 12pm – 4pm, every Saturday
Where: El Chiringuito, Rixos The Palm
Price: From AED395

Spider-Man: Homecoming (18)
Unlike the endless cinematic disappointments being churned out by DC right now, Marvel continues to strike gold with big-screen adaptations of its well-thumbed comic book source material. And none seem as popular as old Spidey himself, Peter Parker. This is the third different incarnation since 2002 and new leading man, Tom Holland, adds plenty of impish charm to the role, which sees the teenage superhero confront Vulture (Michael Keaton) all while still at high-school. Does he get any extra credits for that?
