A handy guide to the best of the city…

This week we say goodbye to January and hello to an abundance of fun things to do in Dubai. From an adrenaline-pumping attraction to a calming luxury spa treatment, here are our top picks to keep you busy in Dubai this week.

Here are six things to do in Dubai.

1. Battle it out at a new attraction

Channel your inner squaddie at Town Square’s brilliant new attraction, Battle Park. Following the success of its Al Khawaneej branch, the paintball and adventure park has just opened at Nshama Town Square with even more exciting obstacles. Grab a group of mates and see if you can take on the combat gaming challenges. Prices start from Dhs65 for residents and Dhs75 for non-residents.

Battle Park, Nshama Town Square, Dubai, daily, 2pm to midnight, from Dhs65. Tel: 800 2288 53. battlepark.ae/nshama

2. Recover with a new spa treatment

If you find yourself saying ‘what a week’ by 6pm on Monday, then get yourself down to Miss Lily’s for their Pum Pum Party ladies’ night. The girls can enjoy three drinks and five specially curated dishes for Dhs120. If you’ve been to Miss Lily’s you know you can rely on the tunes to set the vibe, as DJ Crown Prince will be spinning a soundtrack of old skool soul, reggae and soca.
