Cinema
Dubai has a good selection of cinemas, often large multiplexes, showing the
majority of films in English. US films are usually shown in Dubai about two
months after their release in the USA.
Cinema listings are available on the Dubai
City Guide website.
Nightclubs
The legal age for drinking in Dubai is 21, and night
clubs will not allow entry to anyone under this age. Many nightclubs only allow
entry to those over 25 years old and all enforce a dress code, banning jeans,
sandals and trainers. The majority of establishments that are allowed to serve
alcohol are located in the city's many large international hotels.
