Dubai is heading into the weekend before Eid Al Adha with a fresh round of food, music and low-stakes competition. On May 23, QuizBiz and Pizza Express Live at Dubai Production City will launch Brunch Quiz-aoke, a Saturday event that runs from 1pm to 4pm and mixes music trivia, bingo, karaoke battles and other interactive games.
The brunch comes with a three-course menu and unlimited drinks packages, with prices starting at Dhs198 per person for the soft package, Dhs259 for the house package and Dhs449 for the premium package. Bookings are available at queueapp.me/event/Brunch-Quiz-Aoke, a detail that matters for anyone trying to lock in plans before the long weekend starts to fill up.
That is only one part of the weekend’s offering. Shanghai Me in DIFC is also serving Hanami Nights for Dhs248 per person, with three courses and three drinks each, while Vera Wellness on Al Wasl Road in Umm Suqeim is another option for people looking to swap the usual Friday-to-Sunday rush for something quieter. Cherryhouse, a brand new coffee spot in Dubai, adds a more casual stop to the list, and the city’s Lush spa treatment mention points to facials and massages using Lush products.
The timing gives these offers extra weight. The guide lands in the weekend before Eid, when plans tend to get made quickly and tables disappear fast, but it is not Eid Al Adha yet. That leaves a narrow window for people who want to get out before the holiday period settles in and the city shifts from regular weekend mode into full festive pace.
The friction is simple: there is no shortage of options, but none of them last long. Brunch Quiz-aoke is only on Saturdays, Hanami Nights comes with a fixed menu and price, and the wellness and coffee stops are single-location bets rather than sprawling citywide promotions. For Dubai this weekend, the choice is not whether to do something. It is which version of the city you want for a few hours before the holiday begins.
