Get in the Game: Where to Watch Euro 2024 in Dubai

3 Jun 2024

The UEFA European Football Championship (Euro 2024) is an event that takes place every four years, bringing together football enthusiasts (and even those who aren't usually into football) from around the world to celebrate the beautiful game. This year, it will be held from June 14 to July 14 in Germany.

As anticipation builds, two key questions arise: Who do you think has what it takes to win this year? And where are we going to watch the games?

Barasti Beach Bar

Stay chilled in the city's largest air-conditioned tent or opt for a refreshing dip while catching the action on a massive poolside screen. It offers the perfect backdrop for supporting your team.

On match days, there will be exclusive deals like a two-hour drinks package for AED 199. And that is not all. Wear your team’s shirt on the day of play to get a small gift, guess the score for a chance to win, and gather your crew for extended Happy Hour in the air-conditioned tent from 12 pm to 8 pm, Monday to Friday.
