Welcome to 'Things to do in Dubai' on this vibrant Friday, June 6, 2025 As we step into the heart of June, Dubai is buzzing with energy, despite the summer heat. The city is gearing up for Eid Al Adha celebrations, which are expected to begin around June 6-7, filling the air with festive vibes and anticipation.
Today, the weather is hot, but that doesn't dampen the city's spirit. Here are a few key events that you won't want to miss:
First off, if you're in the mood for some cultural celebration, head over to Zero Gravity at Dubai Marina for the Persian Eid Party with Tohi. This vibrant party promises an evening of music, dance, and merriment, perfect for ringing in the Eid festivities[3].
For those interested in poetry and literature, 'Kuch Alfaaz' at The Junction is an evening of poetry by Nitinn R Miranni. This event offers a unique blend of cultural and artistic expression, making it a must-attend for poetry enthusiasts[3].
If you're looking for something a bit more light-hearted, consider the comedy show 'So Mini Things' by Shraddha Jain at Sheikh Rashid Auditorium, although this is scheduled for tomorrow, it's definitely worth planning ahead for[3].
In local news, Dubai is always evolving, and this month is no exception. The city is preparing for the Dubai Summer Surprises (DSS) 2025, which kicks off on June 27 and runs until August 31. This festival promises massive discounts, daily deals, and live entertainment across Dubai's top malls and entertainment spots[5].
For must-do activities today, consider visiting the Dubai Mall, not just for the air-conditioned comfort but also for the array of shops, restaurants, and attractions like the Dubai Fountain Show. If you're looking for something more unique, take a sunset abra ride along the Dubai Creek, offering a serene and historic perspective of the city.
Here’s a local tip: To navigate like a local, make sure to use the Dubai Metro, which is efficient, clean, and covers most of the city. Also, don’t forget to try some traditional Emirati cuisine, such as machboos or luqaimat, which are especially delicious during the Eid celebrations.
As we wrap up today’s highlights, keep an eye out for tomorrow’s events, including the live show by the renowned ‘Artist of the Arabs,’ Mohamed Abdu, at the Coca-Cola Arena, and Roman Frayssinet’s comedy show at Emirates Theatre[3].
