Avatar

The last week of the month always seems to drag on and on…and on, but FINALLY, it’s Wednesday and the shining light at the end of the tunnel is near.

This weekend is looking FINE with a HUGE club line-up, fitness fun, learning workshops and even some new salon treatments worth trying. Here are seven cool things happing in Dubai this weekend.

1. Tekashi 6ix9ine launches the new ladies night at Base

If you don’t know this rapper, you definitely know FEFE, the tune he collaborated with Nicki Minaj on (it’s NSFW to post here, but it’s a tune and a half).

And the rapper is coming to Dubai to launch the new Base ladies night on Thursday, free drinks for ladies at the bar all night!
