Louvre Abu Dhabi is turning eight, and it’s throwing a party that lasts all night. On Friday, November 7, the museum is keeping its doors open until 1 AM for a one-off evening packed with art, music, wellness, and film. It’s a rare chance to see the galleries after dark, with a full lineup of things to do for every kind of visitor.

If you’re in the mood for something lighthearted, the museum’s outdoor cinema is showing ‘Night at the Museum‘ at 7 PM on the Auditorium Plaza. It’s a perfect pick for the occasion and great for families. The screening is free, but you’ll need to reserve seats in advance.

Head up to the rooftop where CRANK will be hosting 4 high-energy spin sessions on Gallery 12 terrace. Picture a silent disco on bikes: laser lights, city views, and themed playlists that keep the energy flowing all night. Classes run between 5:45 PM and 12:30 AM, with different music themes. There’s also a special sunrise ride at 6 AM on November 8. Each session costs AED 250.

If you’d rather slow things down, Dome Plaza will host Floating Immersive Breathwork by Breasy, a two-hour session that mixes sound, movement, and the museum’s iconic architecture for deep relaxation.

Feeling creative? You can “Book an Easel” and paint beneath the dome with guided sessions at 8 PM or 10 PM.

Ever wondered what it’s like to wander a museum after dark, just like in ‘Night at the Museum‘? Louvre Abu Dhabi is turning that idea into reality with Flashlight Gallery Experience: a one-hour tour where the lights go down, and you explore the galleries using only a flashlight. It’s AED 50 per person and a unique way to see the art from a whole new angle.

And there’s also free activity during the night: anyone can join in painting a community mural inspired by the museum’s design.

If you’ve been looking for a reason to visit Louvre Abu Dhabi, this after-hours celebration on November 7 is the one to mark in your calendar. And if you want to warm up for what’s coming, don’t miss the Ministry of Sound’s huge party at the museum on November 1.
