The fourth annual Man At His Best Awards took place last night, hosted in spectacular fashion by Jumeirah at Dubai’s Madinat Arena, to celebrate the achievements of men and women in the Middle East over the past year.
The uniformly glamorous array of guests were welcomed to the ballroom with a special performance by The Music Of Queen: A Rock & Symphonic Spectacular. An opening speech from Editor-in-Chief Jeremy Lawrence followed, before hosting duties were handed over to the safe hands and familiar face of TV-presenter, Tom Urquhart.
Famed UK opera singer Wynne Evans then provided some excellent entertainment to complement the lavish dinner. The presentation of 21 awards was the focus of a night that culminated in the recognition of Esquire’s International Man of the Year, Hollywood actor Idris Elba, and our Man of the Year, the supremely talented Emirati-British director, Ali F. Mostafa.
Afterwards guest were directed to the outdoor terrace for the official after-party featuring Duran Duran’s Roger Taylor manning the decks until the early hours.
