• Dubai’s coolest pop-up returns with two summer weekend editions.
  • 40+ fresh fashion, beauty, and lifestyle brands every weekend.
  • Exclusive activations by Fenty Beauty, Cancro, and noon Minutes.
  • Workshops, charm-making, and retail therapy at One Za’abeel.

If the Ramadan rush taught us one thing, it’s this—Dubai’s not just hungry for Iftar, it’s starving for culture, cool, and curation. After drawing over 15,000 visitors in just three days, Curated Playlist is coming back with a vengeance (and better parking). Say hello to the Summer Pop-Up Weekends at The Plaza, One Za’abeel—a double feature of fashion, fun, and fabulous finds that your group chat’s already buzzing about.

Mark your calendars for May 23–25 and May 30–June 1, because these weekends aren’t your average mall crawl. We’re talking 40+ indie-chic fashion, lifestyle, and beauty brands, a fresh lineup for both weekends (yes, it’s giving no repeats), and vibes that scream “this is where the cool kids are.” Whether you’re into charm jewelry, blooming your own bouquet, or catching a selfie under the architectural glow of One Za’abeel, this one’s got something for every flavor of aesthetic.

Major players like Fenty Beauty, noon Minutes, and Cancro are stepping in with exclusive activations, while homegrown gems like Bluebell, Fabula Jewels, and The Missing Element bring that “where’d you get that?” energy. Oh, and if you’re there for the snacks, Café Bateel, Saddle Café, and Pret A Manger have you covered with more bites than your For You page.

This isn’t just retail therapy—it’s a masterclass in pop-up storytelling. Curated Playlist is setting a new tone for what local events should feel like: bold, immersive, and actually fun. Think less fluorescent lighting, more dopamine décor. It’s where commerce meets culture in the most Dubai way possible—under a sky-high structure with artisanal coffee in one hand and handmade accessories in the other.

So bring your tote bags, your thirst for good taste, and maybe your coolest sunglasses. The summer heat isn’t the only thing bringing the sizzle.

See you at The Plaza—where the playlist isn’t just music, it’s a whole mood!
