Art & culture: find friends for galleries, cinema and music in Dubai

Seeing something together gives you plenty to talk about afterwards. This circle is for people who love exhibitions, films, theatre and concerts.

Where people do this in Dubai

  • Alserkal Avenue in Al Quoz, home to many of Dubai’s contemporary galleries.
  • The Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood and Dubai’s museums.
  • Dubai Opera, cinemas and concert venues across the city.

How to find your people

  • Follow venues’ event calendars and suggest specific shows.
  • Pair a visit with coffee so there’s time to talk about it.
  • Take turns choosing: a film for a film, an exhibition for a concert.

First plans for two

  • A gallery afternoon at Alserkal Avenue
  • A film and dinner
  • A walk through Al Fahidi and the Creek

Good to know

Book tickets separately, and meet at the venue.

How the Art & culture circle works

Members of this circle start plans that anyone in the circle can join, like a game, a walk or a coffee, and answer one quick question a week. Plans are always in public places and arranged by members. Friendship only, for grown-ups 18 and over.
