Last chance: Dubai Miracle Garden closes its doors next week
Dubai Miracle Garden is one of our favourite outdoor attractions in the city. And if you want to visit, you have just a few days left, as the park is closing its doors for the summer at the end of May.
The most colourful space (and most likely, the sweetest smelling) in Dubai announced that the garden will be closing on Saturday, May 31, 2025.
The garden is home to millions of blooms and is open daily: On Saturday and Sunday, it's open from 9am to 11pm, and from Monday to Friday, 9am to 9pm. But don't be alarmed…
Once the summer has passed and the cooler weather has once again graced the city, the gates will reopen. This usually happens at the end of October or early November.
Dubai Miracle Garden is the world's largest display of flora and fauna, with the 72,000 square meter destination home to over 50 million flowers in 120 varieties.
If you're still keen to get down to Dubai Miracle before this season ends, you can book tickets online here. Tickets cost Dhs100 for adults (over 12 years old), Dhs85 for children three to 12, and those under the age of three can enter for free (Emirates ID or an official ID will need to be shown as proof).
*10 indoor attractions in Dubai that will pop on your Instagram* So, when will Dubai Miracle Garden reopen for the new season?
We currently do not have the reopening dates for Dubai Miracle Garden's next season, but the dates are usually announced on social media towards the end of summer. We will be keeping our eyes on the news, and we will let you know as soon as we know.
The garden, which opened in 2013, transforms and adds new floral arrangements, sculptures, and more each season. No matter how many times you visit, you will be amazed.
In 2016, the attraction also won a Guinness World Record for the largest flower arrangement/structure forming the shape of the Airbus A380, pictured above.

Huda Kattan reclaims full ownership of her namesake brand Huda Beauty
Huda Kattan has reclaimed complete ownership of her renowned namesake brand, Huda Beauty, after an eight-year partnership with TSG Consumer. Kattan's brand was initially founded in 2013, built after the success of her beauty blog and her reputation as a makeup artist, with a $6,000 (Dhs22,037) loan from her sister, Alya Kattan, starting with a range of viral eyelashes. From there, Huda Beauty has remained a household name in the beauty space, launching products that blend artistry and innovation, such as the bestselling Easy Bake Loose Baking and Setting Powder and #FAUXFILTER Color Corrector, which has truly changed the game and launched a beauty movement rooted in self-expression, empowerment, and authenticity. View this post on Instagram A post shared by HUDA BEAUTY (@hudabeauty) Prior to regaining full ownership, TSG Consumer acquired a minority stake of the company in 2017. Now, in 2025, Huda Kattan, founder and Co-CEO of Huda Beauty, has officially bought back her equity. With this move, Huda Beauty is now a fully independent business and marks a powerful new chapter for the brand. The decision to reclaim full ownership allows Huda Kattan, now at the helm as the sole owner, to have complete control over her brand's direction, future product launches, and a deeper community engagement along with her husband, Christopher Goncalo, who's serving alongside her as Co-CEO, and her sister, Alya Kattan, leading the social strategy. 'Taking back full ownership of Huda Beauty is a deeply very important moment for me,' said Huda Kattan. 'It says that while many of us dreamers have visions that we are told are too big or not possible to do alone, in actuality, you have all the power you need to change the world yourself! This brand was built on passion, creativity, and a desire to challenge the beauty industry. As we step into this new chapter, I'm more committed than ever to pushing boundaries, staying true to our roots, and showing up for our incredible community every step of the way.' – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram Images: Supplied

How Shorts, Reels, and Stories are Changing the Way Sports Fans Consume Content in MENA
Entertainment as we know it is changing. And changing fast. Screens once dominated by full-length broadcasts have transformed into rapid-fire feeds of reels, shorts, and stories. Entertainment as we know it is changing. And changing fast. Screens once dominated by full-length broadcasts have transformed into rapid-fire feeds of reels, shorts, and stories. To help sports rights holders keep up with fans' unquenchable thirst for content, WSC Sports developed the industry's leading platform for creating innovative AI-tailored content experiences that help organizations deepen the connection with their fans. To get a better understanding of the latest content trends, we analyzed data from over 550 of the world's leading sports rights owners that use our platform. According to the data, the average length of videos created by sports rights holders on the WSC Sports platform has decreased by 24% year over year to an average of 1:11 minutes. In the MENA region, the average video length is just 1:05–-almost a 10% difference compared to the rest of the world. Even websites and streaming apps traditionally associated with long-form video are being affected by this shift. YouTube Shorts, for instance, now account for over 20% of all videos uploaded to the platform. TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Stories across have conditioned fans to expect fast, punchy, highly engaging content—especially in sports, where every second can feel like a highlight. Impact on the Sports Industry For sports rights holders it's a signal to adapt quickly, if you haven't already. Long-form content will always have its place, especially for live broadcasts and deep storytelling. But the window to capture fan attention before and after the game is narrowing. And here's the catch: a lot of organizations are investing millions—sometimes hundreds of millions—just to secure the rights to live sports. Maximizing the value of that investment means extending the life of each broadcast as long as possible. That's where short-form content comes in. By slicing key moments into dynamic, bite-sized videos optimized for social, mobile, and on-demand platforms, teams, leagues, and broadcasters can get exponentially more return on the rights they've acquired—especially in a region with one of the highest average screen times. In Saudi Arabia and Egypt for example, the typical smartphone owner spends 4 ½ hours per day on their phone. That's more than a half hour longer than the global average. When it comes to vertical content—that could be anything from a 4:5 post on Instagram to 9:16 reels and stories—organizations from the MENA region are also outpacing their global counterparts by creating 13% more vertical videos on average. In total, the majority of videos created by WSC Sports' clients—an astounding 67%—were in a vertical format. If short-form consumption continues to rise—and there's every reason to believe it will—organizations that don't recalibrate their content strategy risk falling behind in the race for relevance and reach. What Rights Holders Are Doing—And What They Need to Do To keep up, many organizations have ramped up their short-form production, and even hired dedicated teams to manage everything 'content'. From finally saying yes to opening that TikTok account, to adapting to new content formats like shorts and stories, the push is clearly there. But creating this volume of content quickly, accurately, and at scale remains a challenge—and only one piece of the puzzle. To engage today's evolving audiences, broadcasters and rights holders must begin operating more like digital entertainment platforms by blending innovation, content, culture, and personalization to connect with different means providing experiences they've come to expect, like an app filled with the type of videos already being created for social. An app should also be home to anything you'd find on an organization's website including tickets, news, standings, and upcoming events—the key differentiator here: you own and access user data in your app, something that you miss when only publishing to social media platforms. Sound like a lot? That's because it is. Traditional production and post-production workflows weren't built for this kind of pace. And while some teams might have the manpower to produce content in real and near time, it's often reactive, inconsistent, and difficult to maintain—especially across multiple platforms, formats, and audience segments. AI-Automation is No Longer a 'Nice to Have' Just like every other industry, sports organizations will need to adopt the latest AI tools to stay in the game and keep their brands competitive. WSC Sports helps rights holders meet fans where they are—with automated, personalized video content that's ready for every screen, every moment, and every platform. Our AI-powered platform takes live broadcast streams and transforms them into short-form videos, built for the way fans consume content. Who's Doing it Best? We've seen firsthand how our global client base is leveraging the WSC Sports platform to not only meet the demand for short-form—but to lead it.
