Dubai, UAE, 2nd October 2024: The McGettigan Group, in a new franchise partnership with Seven Tides International and City 12 Hospitality, is thrilled to announce the opening of a brand new McGettigan's in the five-star Oaks Ibn Battuta Gate Dubai.

Set to open its doors in November 2024, this expansive new venue, which covers over 11,000 square feet within the hotel, is perfectly placed to serve fantastic food and drinks and provide entertainment to hotel guests and the local and wider communities.

Located opposite Ibn Battuta Mall and a short drive from Jebel Ali, Dubai Marina, Jumeirah Park and Emirates Hills, McGettigan’s Ibn Battuta is destined to become a social hotspot.

Its interior will feel familiar to McGettigan’s regulars, but it has a few interesting new touches. One is a large outdoor garden, which is sure to become an al fresco favourite in the cooler months, with its live music stage and large LED screen to watch all of the sporting action.

The venue will offer something for everyone - from perfectly poured beverages and McGettigan’s favourite dishes to a vibrant line up of entertainment and live sporting events on its screens. The opening of McGettigan’s Ibn Battuta marks another significant chapter in the McGettigan's story, being the first collaboration with Seven Tides International.

Dennis McGettigan, CEO of the McGettigan Group, expressed his enthusiasm about the new opening, "We are delighted to partner with Seven Tides International and City 12 Hospitality for this exciting new venture. The location and layout lend themselves perfectly to the McGettigan’s brand, and we can’t wait to open our doors and welcome the community.”

Ghanim Bin Sulayem, Director of Operations, Seven Tides International, which recently celebrated its 20th anniversary added, “McGettigan’s was our preferred choice for what is a significant space at Oaks Ibn Battuta Gate Dubai. We wanted to partner with an operator who can create a vibrant venue for hotel guests, local residents and the broader community. We’re looking forward to this venue becoming a lively and popular attraction, seven days a week.”

The venue will feature all the hallmarks of the beloved McGettigan’s brand, including live entertainment, sports viewing, weekend brunches, Irish Breakfast and of course McGettigan’s famous Sunday Roast, ensuring that guests keep coming back for more.
