The venue will count Iris and Mika as its neighbours.
Abu Dhabi, a new bar is coming to the capital. Bla Bla Bar is opening at Yas Marina on Friday, 23 May 2025. At the moment, boards are on display along the waterfront. The much-hyped venue, known for its electric atmosphere and immersive experiences across the globe, now brings its distinct day-to-night concept to the capital — and it’s set to shake up the social scene.
Bla Bla Bar is already causing a buzz, and judging by the latest images, the venue boasts a sultry setting. Plus, we are expecting it to include waterfront views of the Abu Dhabi skyline, luxury yachts and sunset. The space blends indoor and al fresco areas, making it an ideal spot for golden-hour drinks or late-night revelry. Whether you’re settling in for a sunset cocktail or dancing well past midnight, this new hotspot promises a dynamic backdrop of energy and elegance.
To celebrate the launch, Bla Bla Bar is turning on the charm with two limited-time offers. Ladies, take note: a nightly Martini-sponsored cocktail hour will run from 8pm to 10pm for the first three weeks — completely on the house. Meanwhile, a generous Happy Hour from 6pm to 10pm daily ensures there’s always a reason to raise a glass.
Yas Marina is home to a range of restaurants, bars and cafés. The restaurants include healthy dishes at Boroughs, and marvellous Mediterranean food at the FACT award-winning Mika. Plus, other venues include a Spanish menu at Diablito, a relaxed lounge and bar at Iris, Middle Eastern and North African cuisine at Ishtar, and live entertainment, beverages and bites at Stars ‘N’ Bars.
In December, Yas Marina will also welcome the Formula One Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, bringing together the world’s leading race car drivers. The Yasalam After-Race Concerts also take place during the event. Benson Boone will perform on 4 December, Elyanna and Post Malone will perform on 5 December, Metallica will take the stage on 6 December, and Katy Perry will close the event on 7 December.
