Over 25 of our fave characters are right here, bringing us hits from Aladdin, The Little Mermaid and Disney/Pixar’s Toy Story – all remixed to rock, pop, reggae, hip-hop, jazz and country! There’s no way we’re missing out on this one, mama.

Dubai Ice rink New Snowzone
Head on over to the Dubai Ice Rink and escape the heat for a day! The more the merrier, mamas: get other families involved and (safely) battle in a kids vs. parents snow fight! Plus, there’s even #snowfall over the rink on Saturdays! It’s always extra special if they haven’t had a chance to see snow yet. This may be just what you need to finally book that ski holiday you’ve been dreaming of…

Big Bubble Run
The UAE’s first ever foam race! Join in the fun and walk, jog or run your way through a 5K course filled with lots and lots of bubbles… With face painting, bubble making and even a BIG Bubble show, this is one for the whole fam! We love that they also make safety a top priority so the foam is a unique toxic-free, non-slip mixture that is safe on the body, skin and the environment: hooray!
