There is no doubt that Dubai is one of the most incredible destinations to travel to. With world class attractions such as Burj Al Khalifa (World’s tallest man made structure), Burj Al Arab (World’s tallest Hotel), The Palm (Man made islands) and so much more, you really need a good two weeks minimum to experience this city. In all this hoopla, Dubai’s nightlife has been somewhat forgotten, but boy does it exist!
They say that if you are standing in a spot somewhere in daytime in Dubai, you wouldn’t be able to recognize the same place after dark. The city literally transforms under the lights every single day. Its packed with world class and very unique exotic restaurants, giant malls and not to mention the top quality clubs that have seemed to take over the nightlife.
However, to play on the safe side, don’t forget that it is a Muslim country and yes they are strict about their alcohol (Especially if you are drinking outside of a bar or club). As longest your are following the rules, you’ll be alright. Some common things to remember when going to a club is your passport for identification, you must be over 21 and the clubs and bars close at three in the morning.
Regrettably, there are no after hours drinking venues but that just works out fine most times. Cover charge or entry is usually around $30 dollars give and take but well worth the experience. You’ve probably heard this in your own country but drinking and driving is not a good idea and actually the ‘kiss of death’ in Dubai. No you won’t get the death penalty, but you will be fined about $15,000, one month in jail than straight deportation. Yes that is harsh indeed so try to avoid drinking and driving or drinking outside the designated areas at all costs.
Dubai is the most liberal Muslim city in the world and just like its nightlife, its growing fast. From the most expensive to the local favorites, Dubai nightlife offers a very unique experience to any visitor.
Dubai is a great place to visit and the perfect destination for the night life lover. Don’t forget to visit Dubai Clubs and hope you enjoy Clubbing in Dubai.
