Recently, more and more clubs, especially from the elite category, are letting the audience only on club cards and guest lists. Also, some establishments preach entry policies only for couples (often a “pair” can be found at the entrance). There is also almost overt discrimination - the better you look, the more likely you are to get to the most "fish places".
Until 2000, Dubai's clubs did not charge a fee for admission. With the advent of a more serious club culture, differentiation of the public, as well as the advent of commercial projects, entry fees have also appeared. Expect to lay out 50-100 dirhams for entering ordinary clubs and up to 200 dirhams for gigs of DJs. Entrance to elite clubs may be even more expensive.
However, some clubs continue to let the audience in for free, especially in the evenings on weekdays. Also, the entrance may cost you nothing if you are a girl and come before a certain time. Men usually have to pay for themselves. Usually, anyone over the age of 21 is allowed into clubs. Those who look younger than the border age require an ID card everywhere.
Money
Night parties are usually expensive. Alcohol in clubs, as elsewhere, is the main source of income. Some clubs practice ordering tables and drinks, which gives visitors the opportunity to get into the guest list.
In an ordinary club, a drink costs up to 100 dirhams apiece. In the elite - unlimitedly expensive. Eating is also not cheap. And be vigilant - bartenders here on every corner are trying to cheat not sober audience.
Days
The most active curling occurs from Thursday to Friday and from Friday to Saturday. But in the evenings on weekdays, many clubs host theme parties, for example, for salsa lovers, women’s companies and even ... cheese.
Security
Club guards are often among the most unfriendly employees in the service sector of the Emirates. And this is especially felt against the background of very helpful employees of restaurants and shops.
You may be denied entry without explanation. That is, they explain the refusal by "club politics", which, in theory, should be reported on information stands. Information is rare, so security is at its discretion. It is useless to argue.
Time
Dubai clubs operate all year round, many daily. The most club time is winter. The dead season is the holy month of Ramadan, when all clubs without exception are closed from the beginning to the end of Muslim fasting due to the ban on entertainment events.
