Dubai Gears Up for Time Out Nightlife Awards 2025

Dubai is preparing for one of the most exciting nights of the year. The Time Out Dubai Nightlife Awards are returning for the 15th consecutive year to celebrate the city's best clubs, bars, and entertainment venues. This prestigious event, considered the most respected celebration for Dubai's nightlife industry leaders, will be held on Wednesday, November 19th, at the luxurious JW Marriott Marquis Dubai.

Throughout the year, the organization's experts have anonymously visited hundreds of different locations at their own expense to experience and select the best in each category, just like a regular customer.

🟣 New for 2025: Reflecting the City's Dynamic Pulse

Dubai's nightlife scene is constantly evolving, and this year's awards recognize this dynamism with the introduction of three brand new categories:

1️⃣ Best Event Series: This new category goes beyond physical venues to recognize pop-up parties, monthly events, and series that have consistently created a unique and festival-like experience for audiences.

2️⃣ Best Hotel Bar: Given that Dubai's hotels are home to some of the city's most stylish and innovative bars, this new category specifically focuses on elevated lounges with stunning views and cozy spots that have become local hangouts.

3️⃣ Best Non-Alcoholic Bar Offering: In response to the growing demand for creative non-alcoholic beverages, this category is dedicated to bars and mixologists who offer exceptional and artful non-alcoholic menus using premium ingredients.
