Nothing beats curling up and getting cosy with a great movie at Christmas time during the winter season. For a unique experience, round up your loved ones and head to the Souk Madinat Jumeirah and catch a festive flick under the night sky.
To celebrate the Christmas season, Souk Madinat Jumeirah has covered the Souk amphitheatre with comfortable bean bags and will be screening festive movies until December 26.
