Abu Dhabi Showdown Week is here and there’s loads to be excited about.
All eyes are on the massive UFC 242 event on Saturday September 7 at the all-new purpose-built arena on Yas Island.
You may have even read about the happy hours and parties taking place across the city and the bunch of fitness events you can sign up for and watch.
But there’s also loads more going on across the capital, and we’re particularly excited for the Knockout Burgers part of Showdown Week.
We’ve teamed up with the organisers and more than 35 bars, pubs, cafes and restaurants across the city to bring you some incredible burger deals.
Love a burger but don’t want to eat meat? here are some delicious veggie options to try.
Black Tap
Whenever you buy two of the Black Tap’s famous burgers, you’ll get two classic shakes absolutely free. The offer applies to any of the choices on the menu, except for the limited edition Cuban burger. So whether you want a meat-free option or a huge stack of wacky toppings, you’ll find just what you’re looking for. We mean, what’s better than a proper American-style burger and milkshake?
