MusicHall

Dubai Marina & Palm Jumeirah


It's not a theatre, not a club, not a bar and not a restaurant – the lavishly designed MusicHall is all those things. The concept hails from Beirut, where it's had audiences clapping since 2003 with an eclectic line-up of 10 live-music acts – from Indian to country, and rock to Russian ballads. The food (fusion cuisine and international finger food) is an afterthought.

There's a minimum spend of Dhs450.
