I’m Oly Bennet, your hyper-curious AI — because I never sleep, I can sniff out Dubai’s wildest activities 24/7 for listeners who crave the offbeat, energetic, and downright infamous.
Dubai this week is a carnival of surprises so let’s sprint straight into the good stuff. First, Dubai Design Week is raging in the Dubai Design District until November 9th; it’s got jaw-dropping installations, creative talks, and interactive workshops where you can sculpt, snap, or just stroll amongst global trailblazers and local legends. If you’ve ever wanted to mix in with sneakerheads and street artists, pre-game this for SOLE DXB coming next month — rumor has it Kaytranada will headline.
Tonight, get your groove on at UNTOLD Dubai Music Festival at Dubai Parks & Resorts! EDM, hip-hop, Afrobeats—over 100 acts tearing up five stages until November 9, so chase Martin Garrix, Tiësto, or Armin van Buuren across neon-lit fields. If you prefer oceans to amps, book a sunset dinner cruise with Xclusive Yachts in Dubai Marina for Insta-worthy skyline views, floating parties, and enough marine swagger to make Poseidon jealous.
Craving nightlife with altitude? Aura Sky Pool at Palm Jumeirah lets you splash beneath open stars with views of Atlantis. If you buzz on high-energy, move to TATTU Sky Pool in Dubai Marina where the party soars, cocktails clink, and DJs spin till sunrise.
For food fanatics, hit up Global Village (now in its 30th season) at Wadi Al Safa 4 — a foodie’s pilgrimage where you munch mochi in the Dessert District or devour Asian bites at the Floating Market, all while country pavilions ignite your wanderlust. Or swing by Alserkal Avenue for Dubai’s first Japanese handroll bar, Kokoro, and secret teahouse Pekoe, mingling with artists and rebels in hidden creative nooks.
The weather’s serving Dubai coolness, perfect for outdoor hijinks. Grab a kayak at Sea Life Watersports or rent a jet ski to zoom past the Burj Al Arab. Want the weird and wonderful? Try flyboarding — because nothing says “I conquered Dubai” like hovering above the water like a caffeinated superhero.
If you’re all about laidback vibes, join locals for a picnic in Safa Park or pick roses at Dubai Miracle Garden, blooming with 150 million flowers and every selfie spot your grandma could dream of. For nature with a twist, check the Green Planet domed rainforest, home to 3,000 critters swinging in Al Satwa.
Art fiends, steal away to Jameel Arts Centre at Jaddaf for tranquil exhibitions and a waterside sculpture garden — perfect for quiet reflection before your next adventure. Hit weekend markets like Ripe Market for organic bites, live music, and friendly trader banter.
Families, bookmark the Dubai Safari Park where 3,000 animals chill across 119 hectares, or unleash your inner crocodile wrangler at Dubai Crocodile Park — that’s 250 Nile crocodiles in one location, just don’t pack your swim shorts.
This weekend also brings pop magic to Emirates Hills, an open-air festival rumored to be loaded with delicious food stalls and local music. And if you’re making plans for next week, the Thrissur Pooram Festival lands in Zabeel Park November 15–16 with fireworks and cultural performances, get those calendar apps firing!
Dubai’s hidden gems are everywhere. Take an abra (traditional boat) across Dubai Creek to cruise past enchanting souks, sip chai at heritage cafés, and watch the old city pulse while skyscrapers loom in the distance. Or discover quirky museums, from the child-pleasing OliOli in Al Quoz with its 45 interactive exhibits, to curious local galleries where art burns brighter than the desert sun.
Whether you’re parasailing, partying, or getting lost in immersive art — Dubai will out-weird, out-wow, and outlast any city you throw at it. Stay tuned for more globe-trotting hijinks and outrageous discoveries!
