About this listen

 Good morning listeners. If you are in Dubai this week or planning to be here, you are in for an exciting lineup of events, concerts, and activities that capture the city’s pulse even in the peak of summer.

First up, the Untold Festival is underway right now through August 10. This massive music event at Expo City brings together superstar DJs and performers, including Tiësto, Post Malone, Alan Walker, and Martin Garrix. Expect immersive stages, huge crowds, and musical energy each night. The festival’s four-day pass gives you access to a stellar global lineup, making it the city’s can’t-miss party for music fans this week, as listed on StubHub.

For those looking for something active, Wafi City Run on August 10 is an indoor race suitable for all ages. It’s a great way to beat the summer heat, stretch those legs, and join an enthusiastic local crowd. Online event guides such as Bayut recommend lacing up your trainers for this unique event inside the Wafi City complex.

Families with children should check out Dubai Sports World at the Dubai World Trade Centre, running now through early September. Inside this epic air-conditioned space, you’ll find sports like football, basketball, padel, badminton, and tennis, plus leagues and tournaments for all ages and abilities. According to HiDubai Focus, this is where Dubai’s sporting community gathers in summer.

Fans of the stage are in for a treat too. Aladdin The Musical runs at the Meyana Auditorium at Jumeirah Beach Hotel from August 12 to 27. The same venue is hosting The Little Mermaid The Musical from August 13 to 26. Both shows promise a dazzling visual spectacle, beloved songs, and family-friendly magic on stage.

If you enjoy something a little different, look out for Play My Song, an interactive music night with Sean Rumsey, happening Thursday August 8 at TODA in Souk Madinat Jumeirah. Guests shape the night’s setlist by submitting requests, while Sean and his band create a bespoke concert on the spot. According to Gulf News, this is the city’s most interactive and memorable musical experience.

And don’t forget Dubai’s endless world of indoor attractions. Whether it is gliding across Dubai Ice Rink, bouncing at Bounce trampoline park, or exploring the thrilling rides at IMG Worlds of Adventure, the city’s indoor entertainment scene is designed for fun in every form, as recommended by Bayut’s local guide.

As you head into the weekend, there is truly an event for every mood in Dubai, from global festivals and live shows to sports, arts, and family fun. Thanks for tuning in and remember to subscribe.
