The Dubai Expat Diaries

Sheikh Mohammed has ordered the cancellation of all New Year celebrations in Dubai as an act of solidarity with the Palestinian people.

There has been a lot of confusion over which or if any of the planned events will go ahead. If you have purchased tickets or made bookings, you may have to check with the venue for their final plans.  

According to Time Out Dubai, there won’t be any outdoor events or fireworks, but the club nights may go on. For the latest updates, click here.
