Hi, im from Toronto and thinking about moving to Dubai soon.
Was wondering what how the raves in Dubai are. over here we get all the big DJ's coming through. Armin van buuren, sander van doorn, tiesto etc.
raves usually go from 10pm untill 8am. crowd is usually 40% guys, 40% girls and 20% queers..
but the girls are always smoking hot.
people are always really friendly at raves.. most probably cause their on X..
are things the same over there?

thanks,

never heard of an "afterparty" club that is usually in your house as for afterparty dubai muncipality has strict 3am rule and there are no after hours clubs. Most of the after parties are held at private villas or hotel rooms etc ..

Hello Zanzibar .. so ur nickname after the strip club on Younge street

Anyway Dubai does get the best international DJs every week and it will happen that there will be two or three on the same weekend or night. For example we have Benny Bennassi and AVB on the same night in a couple of weeks! However i wouldnt say Dubai has "raves" for many reasons some of which are:

1) strict 3 am rule no club can be open past 3am.

2) Very strict drug rules. Being caught with X will land you in deep shit.

3) Immature clubbing culture. Most people are less into the music more into showing off and being obnoxious.

haha yea the strip club on Yonge Street is really horrible theres much better in toronto..
Zanzibar as a nickname because its my fav. place in the world!.

anyhow,
the information u gave me is quite depressing!!
no rave goes past 3am!?!?
people dont go for the music?!?
man, why would any DJ's show up to dubai if the rave culture is soo weak... i guess money is everything to them these days.

and dropping X is a serious deal there eh?
i heard the drug laws are ridiculous, but i mean its preety easy to play it off when your on X, most of the time people dont know your on it..
is it even accessible there?
