Dubai, UAE – March 27, 2025 – McGettigan's is thrilled to announce its return to Apron Views for the Dubai World Cup, the world’s most spectacular race day, at the iconic Meydan Racecourse this Saturday, April 5. Making sure guests are well ‘fed and watered’, McGettigan's promises an unparalleled race day experience, blending world-class horse racing with exceptional entertainment, delectable food, and refreshing beverages.

Located on the rail right next to the racetrack, the vibrant social village of Apron Views by McGettigan’s will showcase a selection of bustling bars and luxurious lounges, a variety of food trucks serving classic favorites, live entertainment and DJs to keep the energy racing throughout the day and night. At the centre of Apron Views is the Style Stakes area, showcasing the most fashionable outfits with lucrative prizes for the best dressed guests, across five categories.

As well as a pop up McGettigan’s bar with all your favourite pours and a food truck next door, you’ll also find a full selection of hops at both The Plaza bar and the London inspired Goose & Gander pub, with its own stage featuring live musicians throughout the afternoon before the main stage kicks in as the sun goes down.

Located along the rail are three lounges, the famous Bubble Lounge serving French fizz, the Garden Lounge mixing refreshing blends and last but by no means least the O Lounge, a collaboration between McGettigan’s and O Beach. This cool lounge will feature O Beach’s team of resident DJs and energetic entertainers, bringing the party vibe to Apron Views.

Apron Views will also be the location for the ‘After Party’ which starts as soon as the Dubai World Cup Closing Ceremony ends. Guests from all hospitality suites can come down and socialise until the early hours, with a live performance from Sundance on the main stage for live music lovers, and DJs into the early hours at O Lounge by O Beach.

Whether you’re passionate about the ‘Sport of Kings’, eager to dress up for the day, or simply looking to join the most prestigious event of Dubai’s sporting and social calendar, McGettigan's at Apron Views is the place to be and be seen.
