Metal Meets the Desert: Top 5 Places Every Rock Fan Should Visit in Dubai
It might seem that rock culture isn’t popular in Dubai, but it’s false. This article breaks this misconception by presenting you with the best rock locations and events where you can bang your head in rhythm with heavy strums and beats. But before the start, you should know that locations are far from one another, requiring you to have a speedy vehicle to get across them.
Car rental is a top solution here. Organizations like Trinity Rental provide you with luxury vehicles, allowing you to rent Porsche Dubai. Whether it’s a Ferrari, McLaren, or Porsche rental in Dubai, you can pick from 2024+ car models available without pre-depositing.
As you pay for a Porsche car rental with your cash, Visa, Mastercard, or crypto, you receive a full-tank luxury beast that you can tame for daily 300 km rides. The car comes with full insurance, toll roads, and VAT included. Trinity delivers their vehicles to airports, offices, hotels, etc., providing you with 24/7-available managers during your Porsche rental period.
Hard Rock Cafe
Once Dubai Hard Rock Cafe, the most recognisable rock cafe in the world, was launched, it quickly became popular among fans of heavy music. The local bands play here 24/7, performing the songs of iconic:
- Bon Jovi;
- Led Zeppelin;
- Aerosmith;
- AC/DC.
On top of that, Hard Rock Cafe has a mini-stage with live music every evening. The cafe is found at Dubai Festival City Mall, Zone 8A, playing live music between Sunday and Thursday. A spot also features a Rock Shop where you can buy merch from Hard Rock Cafe or bands from 10 AM on Saturday and Sunday.
Lock, Stock & Barrel
This is a club-type establishment that allows only 21+ visitors. Lock, Stock & Barrel is a home to American cuisine and heavy music from local bands. But get prepared for a strict dress code if you plan to visit a place. Wear anything besides hats, beachwear, sportswear, sleeveless t-shirts, and open-toed footwear.
Pizza Express
Do you like rock music, as well as Italian dishes? You’re welcome to Pizza Express, a place where you can enjoy cheesy pizzas and high-voltage hits. The place is located near Jumeirah Lake Towers, having both a casual hall for eating and a stage with chairs and tables to enjoy live rock performances.
Pizza Express is also well-suited for visitors with children. It features kids-menu and pizza-making parties that can entertain your entire family – you receive a self-made pizza as a bonus.
Rock Nation DXB
If you’ve done a Porsche car hire, you can travel to the Grand Millennium Hotel, Barsha Heights, to enjoy Rock Nation DXB events. Unlike the previous positions in this list, this one doesn’t mix a cafe and rock performance formats – it’s a classic hard music concert.
However, it doesn’t mean that you can’t get a drink here. Rock Nation DXB hires bartenders to pour your favourite cocktails while you listen to cover and self-sufficient groups.
Headbangers Hub
Those who like heavy music for its spirit and not so big names should visit Headbangers Hub. It’s an underground Dubai event that features small metal bands that perform with all their heart and soul.
