Welcome to “Things to do in Dubai,” your go-to guide for exploring the city’s best happenings! It’s Saturday, August 2, 2025, and Dubai is buzzing with weekend energy as temperatures climb into the mid-40s Celsius—don’t forget that sunblock and water bottle. The city’s usual clear skies persist, and thanks to recent coastal breezes, the air quality is mellow, perfect for day and night excursions. With Expo fever still lingering, Dubai offers something for everyone today.
Let’s dive into the standout events energizing the city. First up, the Dubai Property Expo 2025 is in full swing today, offering real estate enthusiasts and investors a front-row seat to Dubai’s latest property projects—head to White Collar Realty and browse the most talked-about developments from 10 AM to 7 PM[7][1]. If music and dance are your vibe, Papa Dubai is hosting the biggest Latin party in the Middle East tonight, with La Latina from 11 PM till late —expect sizzling beats and Dubai’s liveliest dancers[10]. Prefer a fusion of Bollywood and Arabic hits? OVO Dubai’s Arabic Mix Bollywood Night will set the party scene ablaze this Saturday, promising energetic performances and a packed dance floor[4].
Families are spoilt for choice too. Aquaventure Waterpark and Ski Dubai offer a cool escape from the summer heat—whether you’re sliding through water tunnels or carving up the indoor slopes[6][3]. For a more relaxed day, take a stroll at Dubai Miracle Garden or catch the sunset fountain show at the Dubai Fountain, both highly rated for family fun and awe-inspiring visuals[6].
In breaking local news, the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) just opened a new exit connecting Financial Centre Street to Ras Al Khor Road, making trips into town smoother and reducing congestion in the city centre[2]. In the business sphere, the real estate market continues its surge, particularly in mid-market areas like Jumeirah Village Circle and Dubai South, reflecting the city’s dynamic urban growth[5]. On the dining front, new eateries are cropping up in City Walk and JBR—watch out for Mediterranean and Pan-Asian kitchens making waves with fusion menus.
For today, here are a few can’t-miss experiences: brave the dizzying heights of the Burj Khalifa’s open-air observation decks, hop onto a traditional abra for a scenic ride along Dubai Creek, or explore the city’s cultural tapestry at Global Village, where dozens of countries display their crafts and cuisines[3][6]. Hidden gems include an early morning camel trek in Al Marmoom desert or boutique art galleries tucked within Alserkal Avenue, championing local creativity.
Here’s a local tip: Use Dubai’s excellent Metro system to beat the heat and skip traffic jams—plus, you’ll get a unique perspective of the city’s skyline between stops.
Before we wrap up, mark your calendar for tomorrow’s Sharjah City Tour—a perfect escape for those craving Persian markets, lush island gardens, and tranquil museum spaces just a short drive from Dubai[9]. Stay tuned for more highlights and helpful tips on “Things to do in Dubai”—we’ll make sure you never miss out on the city’s most memorable moments.
