Social Distrikt has officially opens its doors to the public.
The food and bar hall is a 20,000 foot space spanning the UAE’s waterfront destination The Pointe in front of the Palm Fountain.
The venue seats 600 guests with social distancing and 1200 guests at full capacity, offers a number of Dubai’s post popular F&B outlets all in one place, including Pinsanity, Couqley, Ichiban Sushi, Zaroob, Circle Cafe, Rock House Sliders, Japang, and more.
Each venue has their own branded façade with an ‘open-kitchen’ concept, allowing visitors to download to place their orders and have their meals delivered directly to their tables.
Think Time Out Market, but with some extra additions that make the space unique.
Here’s those special goodies: the venue also includes immersive social spaces, entertainment corners, partnering with local companies to bring this vision to life. These include an eclectic concept store to browse through and shop at, by FLTRD, a VR gaming corner by Robocom, and a vinyl record station by Raw Music Store. In addition, the venue will host its very own live radio, which will be open to the public.
Social Distrikt also plans to launch various themed-nights and events throughout the year, featuring a variety of entertainment nights, events, and activations, from standup comedy, game nights, sunset art workshops, to brunches, movie nights, book clubs, and more. The venue will also soon act as a space for ‘digital nomad’s to work from in the near future, with various accommodating packages soon to roll out.
Social Distrikt was conceptualized by Limestone Lab, the recently-launched hospitality group founded by Dubai’s renowned duo entrepreneur Hassan Ballout and Hani Doueik.
“We are grateful and excited to finally see what we imagined as a harmonious ecosystem, finally come to life. We are looking forward to welcoming our guests, our extended family, to experience this multi-sensory space all together as a one big gathering,” says Ballout,
The event had a preview party with VIPs and influencers from across the UAE, with many guests given an exclusive NFT drawing of themselves as part of the invitation.
