Some of the best evenings in Dubai start without a plan. Add art and free entry, and you have a good reason to head out. If that sounds like your kind of night, DIFC Art Nights is back from April 23 to 26 for its 21st edition.
No booking needed, just head to Gate Village in the evening and take your time with the installations. You’ll see paintings, digital art, sculptures, photography, murals, and other pieces, including works from Opera Gallery and Christie’s.
Stick around and you might end up at a panel talk, a live performance, or even a workshop you didn’t plan on joining. At DIFC Art Nights everything is free to attend. It’s a great chance to immerse yourself in art before the next edition comes around.
While you’re there, don’t miss another free stop: DIFC Sculpture Park, where around 50 artworks are on display until end of May.
- Dates: April 23 to 26, 2026
- Timings: 5 PM to 10 PM
- Location: Gate Village, DIFC
- Entry: Free
