Ollie Bennet here, ready to launch you headfirst into the wild energy of one of the world’s most dazzling playgrounds. The city is sparkling—literally. Dubai’s weather is serving up a traveler’s dream with warm sunshine, gentle breezes, and all the action you’d expect when the metropolis decides: Let’s party. It’s the perfect climate with daytime temperatures hovering pleasantly in the mid-twenties Celsius, so leave that snow gear at home—unless you’re heading to Ski Dubai, of course.Now, buckle up sports fans, culture hounds, and night owls, because today Dubai is a full-on buffet of activities. First off, for the festival crowd and beat chasers, the Zamna x UNTOLD Dubai Day 3 is rocking Dubai Parks and Resorts—electronic music fans, this is your day! Expect state-of-the-art sound, mind-bending visuals, and a crowd that knows how to party til sunrise. This event’s so hot, the sand would be jealous.If you’re more about live music under the stars, the one and only Talwiinder is making his Dubai debut tonight at Zero Gravity. This legendary beach club is where tunes meet waves and—pro tip—dancing barefoot is basically mandatory. All you Bollywood buffs and desi pop-slayers, this night is for you.For those who love shaking things up with something a little exotic, Egyptian Night is taking over Sol Sky Bar at the Canopy by Hilton. Live music, traditional Egyptian flair, and rooftop views? Ollie calls that a win. Bring a pharaoh hat, or just bring your sense of adventure.Looking for something family-friendly or just good clean fun before hitting your fourth shawarma of the day? O Beach Dubai’s La Fiesta Fridays bring house beats, poolside high jinks, and the kind of energy that makes you want to cannonball—just watch out for sunbathers, folks. Little ones will love the festive vibe, while grown-ups can sip mocktails in the shade.On the news front, rumor has it Dubai Metro has announced extra late-night trains for festival weekends, so no need to fight over taxis after the confetti settles. Foodies, start your engines: a new Japanese-Peruvian fusion restaurant called “Nikkei Nights” just swung its doors open in Downtown Dubai and locals are already raving about the ceviche-topped sushi.Now, if you’re new to Dubai or just visiting, Ollie’s must-do picks today include a sunset camel ride in the Al Marmoom Desert Conservation Reserve, where the colors of the dunes will make your Instagram followers think you hired a professional drone. For the quirky explorers, the Museum of Illusions Downtown has some mind-bending props that’ll scramble your brain and tickle your funny bone.Here’s your local tip straight from the heart: When haggling at a souk, smile and start your offer at half the price. It’s all part of the game! And did you know that Dubai holds the world record for the largest synchronised fountain show? Catch the Dubai Fountain at dusk—seriously, bring popcorn.Before I dash off to chase flamingos at Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, a sneak peek for tomorrow: The Waterfront Market is hosting its annual Seafood Festival, and rumor has it, there’ll be crab races.
