TXSTYLE · 03-02-2015, 09:04 PM

Well Dayumn...

World's first man-made island solely devoted to partying to be built in Dubai featuring two 'mega clubs', four beach clubs and 100 restaurants

- Man made island will be able to host 20,000 revellers in one go
- Party-goers will not need personal licence to drink alcohol like in Dubai
- It will have five hotels and be open to visitors and other island residents
- 'New Ibiza' promises to be dedicated solely to partying

A man-made party island set to rival Ibiza is being planned to attract revellers to the Arabian Gulf.

Dream Island will be able to host around 20,000 partygoers with two 'mega clubs', four beach clubs, five hotels and 100 restaurants.

The island will be in Ras Al Khaimah, which is only a 40-minute drive from Dubai, once construction is completed.
But unlike Dubai where a personal licence is needed to drink alcohol, booze will flow freely on the island.

Sales and marketing director George Saad said: 'We're trying to make it the new Ibiza - a mini Ibiza dedicated solely to partying.
'People will be able to come here, stay in the hotel party at clubs on the beach, anything in the world you can do.
'And we are trying to attract festivals to come here - like Burning Man.'
The developers of the third of four islands that make up Al Marjan are looking to attract £3.2billion of investment.

The party town is on show and seeking British investors at the Dubai Property Show, in Kensington Olympia, this weekend.

The show was launched on Friday by UAE royalty Sheikh Mohmmed bin Maktoum Al Maktoum.
he 4 million square foot island will feature no homes and will only be open to visitors and residents of the neighbouring islands.

The island was built in 2013 and development to make it into a clubber's paradise is expect to be finished by 2018.

The four islands of Al Marjan stretch nearly three miles out into the sea and cover an area of 2.7 million square metres.

As someone who has invested in Bars and Club Promotions, this shit is pretty "Off the Scales"! Ibiza is well-known for making crazy amounts of cash from folks from all over the world.
Alas... Those days are over for this middle-aged married with children guy. But I can certainly relate.

I'll leave it up to all of you 'young, hendonistic, party animals'!

On one hand this is awesome and I want badly to go. But the long-term planner in me is skeptical because Dubai isn't really sustainable.

That said, I'll party there for as long as it's operational

Hedonism rules.

Yet with all that cash flying in the air, she still will have NOTHING to do with him.

They'll need the right amount of drugs if they plan to be anything like Ibiza.

Ibiza is on my bucket list. I dream of Ibiza almost every night.

UncleWede · 03-05-2015, 10:59 AM

Ibiza is that island off the coast of Spain? IF so, +1

I would love to spend a summer in Ibiza.

An entire summer? That's waaaaaay too long. Even when I was a party monster in my prime.
Maybe 2 weeks. Only so much drinking and debauchery I would've subjected myself too...

I think 1 summer is perfect.. Wouldn't need to rush anything, could chill and relax a bit. Make it to both the opening party and closing party at Space.

I personally do not buy it. How are they going to get away from the strict Muslim laws in that region. Dubai has been trying to attract vacationers there, but people getting arrest for public drunkenness and having sex on the beaches has not help them especially with Europeans, you have to behave yourself most of the time.

Even if they pull it off initially, you know that region is way to conservative to allow wild parting happen without restriction.

TXSTYLE · 03-06-2015, 04:18 PM

^^ great point.

UncleWede · 03-06-2015, 05:02 PM

It may be an evolution of the culture, kinda the same premise of that movie where once a year anything goes. Since this is an island, they might be able to convince conservatives that it's not part of the country.

Think Las Vegas. . . flop houses are legal there.
