The Jameel Arts Centre, a contemporary art institution that has quickly become a vital part of Dubai’s creative landscape, is located along the peaceful Jaddaf Waterfront. This sleek, minimalist building — designed with as much care and intention as the finest hotel suites — is dedicated to showcasing the best of regional and international contemporary art.

Alserkal Avenue serves as the centre of Dubai’s art scene. Often regarded as ‘off the beaten path’, this vibrant hub is located within an industrial area. Many might overlook its hidden gems, but it’s highly recommended for creatives, health and fitness fanatics, art enthusiasts and those looking for new experiences while visiting the Emirate.
