LADIES NIGHTS IN WILD WADI
Every Thursday, starting April 29, the famous Dubai Wild Wadi Waterpark launches "Ladies Nights" (from 8 p.m. to midnight). All the exciting attractions of the park await the dear guests, including speed descents on cheesecakes, a lazy river and an artificial wave for surfing, as well as women's teams of DJs and lifeguards.
From May 1st
GRAND HOTEL BUDAPEST
The word "enchanting" is perfect for Wes Anderson's new film. Filled with eccentric characters performed by a team of stars (Rafe Fiennes, Jude Law, Adrian Brody, Tilda Swinton, Bill Murray), “Budapest” became the favorite of the last Berlinale, receiving the well-deserved Grand Prix. A fictional provincial city somewhere in Europe, an action stuck between the two world wars, a riot of colors and directorial imagination inspired by the works of Stefan Zweig - in general, such films are not missed.
From May 1st
"NEW SPIDER MAN: HIGH VOLTAGE"
The reboot of the popular comic franchise (Sam Raimi’s trilogy with Toby Maguire in the title role) definitely succeeded: the first part of the new version of Spider-Man brought the creators $ 750 million. Peter Parker, played by the intelligent Briton Andrew Garfield, came out as a hipster who knows a lot about devices love at the same time. It is unlikely that anyone has doubts about the success of the sequel. This time, Spiderman will fight Electro (Jamie Foxx) and Rhino (Paul Giamatti).
May 5-7
CONCERTS OF BERZHENEVA FAITH
The singer, actress, presenter, promoter of a healthy lifestyle and, in the end, just a beautiful woman with a great sense of humor will give two concerts in Dubai as part of the Russian Seasons project. Viewers will be presented with the program "Good Day". The singer gives an average of 4-5 concerts per month. All her shows are all the more valuable.
Location: Dubai, Burj Al Arab

May 11-13
AIRPORT SHOW
One of the world's largest exhibitions of everything related to airports, from infrastructure to technology. In 2014, the Airport Show will bring together more than 250 key market players. It is not surprising that the exhibition is called "the ideal platform for demonstrating the latest technologies and innovative proposals." The event is for professionals, but the general public there will also be interesting.

CHANEL'S PRESPRING / SUMMER 2015 SHOW
This time, Karl Lagerfeld will present the Chanel cruise collection for the spring-summer season in Dubai's iconic place - on The Island. This is not the first time that the company has organized displays of cruise collections in the most unexpected places - before The Island there was a military camp in Singapore and an ancient castle in Scotland. Why this time Dubai? Firstly, many consider Dubai a “futuristic metropolis”, “a crossroads of civilizations” and, in general, “an ideal place to present a new collection.” Secondly, the brand has several boutiques here, and Lagerfeld himself implements plans to build his own “fashion island” - La Isla Moda.
Venue: Dubai, The Island
May 15
NEIL FINN CONCERT
Finn is the leader of the most popular Australian band Crowded House in the 80-90s. "Don't Dream It's Over" is one of the hits of the first album. Having disbanded the group in 1996, Finn focused on his solo career. But all this pales in comparison to Finn’s participation in the movie The Hobbit. His ballad "Song Of the Lonely Mountain" - sounds in the finale of the film "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey."
Venue: Dubai, Duty Free Tennis Stadium
From May 15
"PRINCESS OF MONACO"
Biopik Grace Kelly is a project of a difficult fate: at first, the finished script was stuck in Hollywood bins for a long time, then the film was accompanied by intra-studio squabbles. In conclusion, the princely family of Monaco dissociated itself from the picture in advance, suggesting that Kelly's life story would be presented with distortions. Despite all this, the film "Princess of Monaco" goes on sale worldwide, and at the same time will launch the next festival in Cannes. Nicole Kidman as Grace Kelly - a diva as a diva - is this not a reason to go see a movie?
16th of May
THE EXIT OF THE NEW COLDPLAY GHOST STORIES ALBUM
The sixth album of the British band Coldplay may come as a surprise. This is indicated by the first released singles "Magic" and "Midnight", as well as the name of Paul Epworth in the list of producers. Epworth, known primarily for his work with singer Adele and who made Paul McCartney’s last CD, joined the band’s old aides, John Hopkins and Rick Simpson. In "Magic" and "Midnight" a lot of electronics, volume and a little too much; Apparently, the scope and pathos of the last two Coldplay releases will give way to chamberliness and minimalism.
May 17
AL GAFFAL TRADITIONAL 60FT DHOW RACE
Dow boat races start early in the morning on Sur Bu Na'air Island and end at the Dubai Yacht Club.

JUSTINA TIMBERLAY CONCERT
Last year for Justin was definitely a success: the artist returned to music with the two-part album "The 20/20 Experience", and it was a real triumph.

If not, then know: "He does not like cats only one who has not yet met his cat."
Venue: Dubai, Light Commercial Tower

KINGS OF LEON CONCERT
Over the 11 years of their careers, the Fallowill brothers have achieved everything that rock musicians can dream of: Grammy awards, millions of copies, crowded stadiums and top models as companions in life. The last, sixth album of the group from Nashville topped the British chart, and took second place in the home American charts. The concert in Abu Dhabi will open the second part of the tour, which started in February and will last until the end of the summer. Kings of Leon play loud and powerful; alive they are very convincing and good.

BEAUTYWORLD MIDDLE EAST
An exhibition of beauty industry products that removes any competitors in its scale, at least in the Middle East.

Alas, only professionals can get to the exhibition.
