The hotel’s WET Deck will serve as the stage for the monthly After Dark Pool Party, continuing through to October. The party, themed in shimmering silver, is a haven for those seeking a night of thrill and elegance. The event offers an opportunity for attendees to relax and dance under the night sky to DJ Flippside’s invigorating beats from 9pm to midnight. Ticket prices are set at AED 99 (£21) for women and AED 150 (£32) for men, including two drinks. VIP tables with bottle service are also available for those seeking a more private, upscale experience.
Taste the Race is an event held in the hotel’s Garage restaurant. Inspired by famous racetracks from around the globe, the dining adventure boasts a selection of delectable dishes from five distinctive culinary hubs. Until the end of September, guests will have the opportunity to explore the culinary delights of Nikkei House’s Japanese cuisine, Steam Table’s Singaporean flavours, Mezza Bar’s Emirati favourites, Meat Vault’s American-style meals, and Tart Van’s Italian desserts.

Additionally, the W Lounge is offering the 8th Hour event, designed for after-work relaxation with affordable beverages starting at AED 25 (£5.50). It provides an ideal ambience to wind down, paired with a stunning view of the Yas Marina racetrack.
The Garage is also hosting the B.I.G – Brunch event, offering a wide array of international dishes, from Sicilian bites to Asian dishes and regional mezze spreads. Meanwhile, the Sunchasers event at WET Deck invites ladies every Saturday to enjoy poolside fun, complete with refreshing slushies.
