Dubai is no stranger to attracting the A-list crowd.
Be it singers, actors, football stars, reality stars, and more, the emirate has been a regular escape for many of Hollywood’s elite.
The latest celebs to touch down in Dubai have been hitting up some happening bars and restaurants in the city that are frequented by a lot of stars before them.
If you’re looking to do some celeb spotting in Dubai, or want to try out a new spot that is quite literally A-listed, we’ve compiled some of the best celebrity-approved spots in the city.
Nobu By The Beach, Atlantis The Royal
Loved by: Kanye West, Jennifer Lopez, and many more.
Remember *that* Kanye sockless Nobu appearance? Nobu is a household name for A-listers across the world, and Dubai’s first beachside offering is no different. With world class food and famous faces, this is one of the most sought-after dining experiences in Dubai.
SUSHISAMBA
Loved by: Nick Jonas, Cristiano Ronaldo, Dubai’s Crown Prince, H.H. Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Molly-Mae Hague and more.
Star-studded spot SUSHISAMBA knows how to provide good food and good vibes for the city’s elites. The emirate’s Crown Prince was even seen visiting the hotspot with famous footballer Cristiano Ronaldo. With 360-degree views overlooking Dubai’s skyline, this one-of-a-kind hotspot is a must-visit.
Forever Rose Café
Loved by: Ebraheem Al Samadi and the Dubai Bling cast.
Forever Rose is Dubai Bling star Ebraheem Al Samadi’s very own business. He spends a lot of time on the grounds and it is even used during filming for scenes in Netflix’s hit reality show Dubai Bling.
GAIA
Loved by: 50 Cent, Rochelle and Marvin Humes and more.
GAIA is a Greek-Mediterranean hotspot curated by culinary experts Chef Izu Ani and Chef Orestis Kotefas. With sought-after dishes and stunning interiors, it’s a no-brainer why celebs flock here.
FitnGlam Gym, Dubai Hills Mall
Loved by: Naomi Campbell and Winnie Harlow.
The UAE’s premium women-only gym, located in Dubai Hills Mall, has most certainly earned its position as a go-to spot in Dubai. Graced by the likes of world-renowned supermodel Naomi Campbell and fashion model Nada Adelle, the luxurious ladies-only spot is on a mission to revolutionise women’s health and wellness in the country.
Atlantis The Royal
Loved by: Beyoncé, Kendall Jenner, Kanye West, Cristiano Ronaldo and many more.
Perhaps a celeb-fave when it comes to hotels in Dubai, Atlantis The Royal is one of the prime spots to catch a star or two in the city. Since its grand opening last year that brought some of the biggest stars in the world to celebrate in the city, the hotel has seen an impressive line up of world-class guests.
Emirates Golf Club
Loved by: Niall Horan and more.
Any golf fan has a fair chance of spotting one of their fave players at Dubai’s famed Emirates Golf Club. During some world-renowned golf tournaments, spectators may just be lucky enough to spot some big name celebs enjoying a round or two of the sport. Just ask the lucky fans who ran in to Niall Horan earlier this year.
Atlantis The Palm
Loved by: Justin Timberlake, Robert De Niro, Michael Jordan and more.
Before Atlantis The Royal, there was Atlantis The Palm. The iconic hotel has seen some huge stars walk through its doors over the years, and it is certainly the original celeb-spotting destination in the city. Some big names still choose to stay here and dine at one of its impressive restaurants.
Club Blu Dubai
Loved by: Chris Brown, Tommy Fury, Kanye West, Ty Dolla Sign and more.
Many celebs hit up Club Blu in Dubai for a happening party spot. Tommy Fury and Chris Brown were even spotted there dancing together earlier this year. If you’re lucky enough (like some fans were recently), you might even catch a surprise performance by the likes of Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign.
