Fred's Coffee Party: The daytime rave revolution brewing in Dubai
Caffeine is in the air. At Fred's Coffee Party, you can dance and drink like you're at a nightclub. The only difference is that it takes place during the day, with no alcohol and in a café. If you want to join the guestlist, here's what you need to know.
Fred's Coffee Party has been crafted with community in mind. The team describe the event as a private experience only for community members. On Instagram it states: 'We love you and want you at the party. However, Fred's will forever be an exclusive invite-only event. Always sober. We see you and we see your inbox messages. The invites are rolled out via DMs itself, so make sure you're texting us. The next coffee party is going to be bonkers, you don't want to miss it'.
At each Fred's Coffee Party, there has been a DJ spinning tunes, and lots and lots of coffee to fuel the afternoon away. Previous menus have included hot and cold drinks. Hot drinks have included an Americano, Espresso, Hot Chocolate, Latte and Spanish Latte. Cold drinks have included Iced Americano, Cold Brew, Cold Brew Tonic, Iced Latte and Iced Spanish Latte. Specials include Honey Cinnamon Oat Latte and Vanilla Bean Latte. Plus, when you get the munchies, there are cookies available.
Fred's Coffee Party has been held at various locations throughout the city, including Intellect Coffee, where beans are sourced directly from farms around the world and roasted in the UAE. The weekly raves have also happened at Artisan Bakers and, most recently, at Chrono Hub.
To join the fun, send a direct message to the official Fred's Coffee Party Instagram account and wait for a response (and hopefully, the location).

Pop singer Jessie J says she has been diagnosed with early breast cancer
The English pop singer Jessie J says she has been diagnosed with breast cancer and will undergo surgery after her performance at the London music festival Capital's Summertime Ball next weekend. Jessie J, 37, shared the news in an Instagram video on Wednesday. "I was diagnosed with early breast cancer,' she said in the clip. "Cancer sucks in any form, but I'm holding onto the word 'early'." "It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job. I am going to disappear for a bit after Summertime Ball to have my surgery, and I will come back with massive (expletive) and more music.' The annual Summertime Ball will be held at Wembley Stadium on Sunday, June 15. She told her social media audience that she felt compelled to share her diagnosis. "I just wanted to be open and share it,' she said. "One, because, selfishly, I do not talk about it enough. I'm not processing it because I'm working so hard. I also know how much sharing in the past has helped me with other people giving me their love and support and also their own stories. I'm an open book. It breaks my heart that so many people are going through so much similar and worse - that's the bit that kills me.' The Grammy-nominated Jessie J has long been celebrated for her robust soprano and R&B-informed pop hits, like the 2014 collaboration with Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande, "Bang Bang,' and 2011's "Domino.' She has released five albums across her career, most recently, 2018's Christmas album, "This Christmas Day.' She has been releasing new music in 2025, including the singles "Living My Best Life' and "No Secrets.' A new album is expected later this year. She has a son, Sky Safir Cornish Colman, born in 2023. A representative for Jessie J did not immediately respond to The Associated Press' request for comment. Associated Press
