3 things to do today in Abu Dhabi

Celebrate a birthday or munch on a bargain brunch

Friday, October 25

Celebrate a birthday: It’s the 150th anniversary of Monte Carlo SBM – the Monte-Carlo Beach Club’s parent company – and to celebrate, the beach club in Abu Dhabi is holding a birthday celebration! There will be celebrity DJs, fire-breathing dancers (yes really!) and prizes to be won during the party by the beautiful pool.
Monte-Carlo Beach Club, Saadiyat Island (02 656 3500).

Munch on a bargain brunch: The PJ O’Reilly’s brunch has started up again. This poolside picnic is a great opportunity to enjoy the outdoors. There is entertainment, pool access, a kids’ corner, bouncy castle and lots of fun to be had for a lowly Dhs174 (including mixed beverages).
Le Royal Méridien, Al Markaziyah (02 674 2020).

Run for UNICEF: Join the Kilomarathon at the Westin to help raise funds for UNICEF. The midnight run will begin with stalls, a kids’ zone and spa sessions. It’s a great night out for the family and helps a fantastic cause. The fun begins at 8pm.
