The purpose-built entertainment and music venue in Downtown Dubai can transform from a traditional theatre into a concert hall and even to a flat floor without any seating.

To complement your experience, arrive early or linger after an event to sample the onsite dining options. The stunning Dubai Opera lobby serves as the perfect backdrop while you mingle with the glamorous crowd and take in breathtaking views of the famous Burj Khalifa.

Dubai Opera sits beside The Dubai Fountain, next to Dubai Mall, and offers a mixture of homegrown talent and touring productions from around the world. To honour the UAE’s rich heritage, Janus Rostock – the architect behind this masterpiece – designed the building to resemble a traditional dhow boat. Visitors to the area are welcome to take a conducted tour of the magnificent facility, which provides insights into its architecture and access to the backstage world of high-end productions.
