Best CLUBS
ABU DHABI
Annex
Over at the swanky Abu Dhabi EDITION this new nightlife addition is located next to the main hotel. Annex occupies an entire building, which juts out into the water of Al Bateen Marina, and is split into three spaces. The rooftop bar is an intimate space where the DJ spins house music with Arabic intervals; the mid-level is for a cosier vibe, and the real party plays out on the ground floor. For a three-in-one experience head on down.
Annex, The Abu Dhabi Edition, Al Bateen Marina, Abu Dhabi, Thur and Fri 8pm to 3am. Tel (02) 2080000. annexabudhabi.com
Mad on Yas Island
Dubbed ‘the largest nightclub in the UAE’, the graffiti covered club on Yas Island brings in big names (Tinie Tempah, Eve and Kid Ink), has friendly staff and thankfully doesn’t take itself too seriously. The opulent nightclub features 360 degree projection mapping, huge animated LED screens, an exceptional sound system, beautiful light shows and a luxurious VIP area.
Mad on Yas Island, Yas Island, Abu Dhabi. Tel: (055) 8346262. facebook.com/MadYasIsland
DUBAI
1OAK
Originating from the Meat Packing District of New York, ‘one of a kind’ 1Oak is a regular haunt for many of the biggest urban musicians and celebrities. In Dubai, it’s a place for residents to come and feel like a celebrity. The futuristic interiors and cushy booths create a highclass atmosphere. While international artists have been known to grace the stage, the focus is on resident DJs creating a consistently cool vibe.
1Oak, JW Marriott Marquis Dubai, Tue and Thur 11pm to 3am, Fri and Sun 11pm to 4am. Tel: (052) 8818888. 1oak-dubai.com

HOW NOT TO LOSE YOUR COOL THIS SUMMER
This is a city that works hard, plays hard, but, on a boiling hot day, can feel like hard work. So look at this month’s magazine as a little cooling comfort pack to see you through the summer season. Let yourself be whisked off to our favourite indoor bars and hideaways – with AC, summery feels and maybe an ice-cold drink to keep you chill. Then dream of refreshing dishes to fill your belly. You’ve never had it so cool.
