UAE, Dubai, 21st November 2024:

The name that put Irish hospitality on the map in Dubai is back with an exciting new venue! McGettigan’s Ibn Battuta Gate has officially opened its doors, ready to set the city’s social scene alight with its signature dishes and drinks, live entertainment, and unbeatable atmosphere.

Situated on the ground floor of Oaks Ibn Battuta Gate Hotel, this expansive new venue takes McGettigan’s to a whole new level. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by a giant atrium adorned with stained-glass windows and central circular table. This stunning space is just a taste of things to come…

Inside, you’ll find a large central bar, surrounded by cozy corners and spacious rooms, each with its own distinct characteristics from floor to ceiling – choose your favourite spot for a quiet catch-up or a lively group gathering. Step outside and you’ll find the ultimate urban garden, a vibrant space served by McGettigan’s iconic domed bar, a music stage and giant LED screen for live sports.

For those seeking something a little more tranquil, you’ll find a sunken garden tucked around the corner, offering chilled vibes for dining and enjoying a quality catch up with friends and family.

To match the impressive interior and exterior comes an equally impressive opening act – Irish favourites The Coronas will take the stage on Friday 29th November, headlining the first of many concerts to come. Head down there for the concert and you’ll see exactly why McGettigan’s Ibn Battuta Gate is set to become a firm favourite for years to come!
