Vox Cinemas launches Jurassic Café Takeover to celebrate ‘Jurassic World Rebirth'
In celebration of Jurassic World Rebirth, the latest instalment in the franchise arriving in cinemas this summer, Vox Cinemas at Mall of the Emirates has launched a limited-time Jurassic Café takeover designed to captivate fans of all ages.
Open daily until midnight, the Theatre Café has been transformed into a fully immersive prehistoric adventure, complete with themed menus, interactive exhibits, and striking photo opportunities that pay homage to the film's most iconic moments.
At the centre of the experience is the Dino Menu, featuring a range of boldly crafted dishes inspired by the world of Jurassic World. Guests can savour the T-Rex Burger, with double Cajun-spiced beef patties, molten lava cheese, and meteor sauce in a charcoal-ash bun, or take on the Raptor Bite Burger, layered with crispy spiced chicken and aged bone cheese. Other highlights include the Queltz Dog, available in turkey, beef, or plant-based options with relic relish and ancient grain buns, and the Herbivore Stack, a plant-based creation of fried portobello mushrooms with truffle-garlic aioli.
For dessert, diners can crack open the Dino Egg Smash, a chocolate egg hiding a sweet prehistoric surprise, and sip themed beverages like the Amber DNA Elixir, a golden passionfruit mojito fizz, or the vibrant T-Rex Blood, a dragon fruit and hibiscus brew with edible swirling claws.
The café's atmosphere completes the adventure, transporting visitors to Isla Nublar with lush jungle backdrops, dino-footprint pathways, and soundtracks from the film. Interactive installations include the Roar-o-metre, where guests can compete to unleash the loudest dinosaur roar, and the DNA Station, which lets aspiring scientists create their own custom dinosaur species.
To mark the premiere and release weekend, live musicians including a violinist and bassist will perform the legendary Jurassic Park theme, adding to the excitement as audiences prepare for the big-screen experience.
Jurassic World Rebirth, starring Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey and Mahershala Ali, will be released regionally on July 3. Tickets are available now through Vox Cinemas, with no booking required to explore the Jurassic Café.

Jeep releases ‘dino-packed' cinema advertisement
Jeep has launched a cinema campaign across Middle Eastern theaters to coincide with Jurassic World Rebirth's theatrical release, marking the brand's most extensive collaboration with the franchise to date. Titled Jurassic Trail Rated, the campaign, booked through Starcom and facilitated by Motivate Val Morgan, capitalised on the film's $318m global opening weekend. The ad ran across premium cinema circuits in the UAE (VOX, Reel, CinemaCity) and Saudi Arabia (VOX, Reel, Muvi, AMC), allowing Jeep to capture peak audience excitement during the movie's strongest performance period. The 30-second spot showcases a Jeep Wrangler navigating prehistoric terrain while encountering seven different dinosaur species – velociraptors, tyrannosaurus, spinosaurus, compsognathus, titanosaurus, quetzalcoatlus, and a baby aquilops. Industrial Light & Magic, the VFX studio behind the film's creatures, created the photorealistic dinosaurs for the commercial. 'What began as natural product integration in 1993 has become one of automotive marketing's most enduring partnerships,' said Youssef Bouhaddioui, Head of Jeep Middle East. 'The Jurassic universe and Jeep share fundamental DNA – both represent resilience when civilisation meets wilderness. Cinema delivers that story at its most visceral – where every roar, every chase, every moment of survival feels real.' The production represented significant creative investment, with ILM-level VFX work and sound design optimised for cinema's premium audio-visual environment. 'The most effective cinema partnerships redefine the relationship between brand and narrative,' said Pavan Deshpande, Senior UAE Sales Manager, Motivate Val Morgan. 'The Jeep-Jurassic collaboration showcases this principle beautifully – where brand capability and storytelling become inseparable. Cinema's immersive environment transforms these authentic connections into memorable experiences that extend far beyond the theater.' The campaign extended beyond cinemas, with the partnership continuing through the film's New York premiere, where a specially designed Wrangler appeared alongside stars Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and Jonathan Bailey. This multi-touchpoint approach anchored the strategy in cinema's premium environment while extending reach across additional platforms. The campaign launched as the Europe, Middle East and Africa cinema market showed strong recovery momentum. According to Gower Street Analytics, the EMEA region is projected to reach $9.1bn in 2025, positioning it 6 per cent ahead of 2024 and making it one of the fastest-recovering international markets in the global cinema landscape. The Middle East specifically is experiencing significant growth, with revenue projected to reach $1.5bn by 2029, up from $900 million in 2024, Motivate Val Morgan reports. Saudi Arabia is driving nearly two-thirds of this expansion, supported by approximately 1,000 new screens added since 2019. Motivate Val Morgan claims the cinema environment delivers guaranteed audience attention during advertising moments, while the shared viewing experience can amplify brand recall through collective engagement. For brands with compatible positioning and sufficient budgets, Jeep's UAE and Saudi Arabia cinema campaign execution demonstrates how authentic partnerships can leverage cinema's unique storytelling properties to create genuine audience connection.

Worthy adaptations
As far as most of us are concerned, an original book beats any movie adaptation out there. However, this is not always the case. This week we are taking a look at some great movies which are better than the books they are based on. One of the most popular movies from the Noughties is 'Mean Girls' starring Lindsay Lohan. Surprisingly, the film is actually based on a self-help book by author Rosalind Wiseman titled 'Queen Bees & Wannabes.' It was Tina Fey who decided to adapt the book into a script. The film did really well and surpased the popularity of the book by far. 'Jurassic Park' came out in 1993 and is based on a book which came out three years prior by sci-fi writer Michael Crichton. Crichton was well-known at the time and his books did well. But the 'Jurassic Park' movie turned his story into a global sensation. Director Steven Spielberg brought the dinosaurs to the big screen in a franchise that is still going strong with the lastest release being 'Jurassic World Rebirth' starring Scarlett Johansson. In other news this week, turn to our Travel pages where we have some summer holiday inspiration. If Italy is on your mind consider the northern city of Rimini. It is described as the Tuscany alternative with a beautiful coastline and wonderful food.
