There's an awesome chess and jazz night coming to the Louvre Abu Dhabi
Love the sound of jazz, a bit of friendly competition and a venue dripping in artistic vibes? Then clear your schedule for Saturday June 7 because Chess Night at Marta is back – and it's cooler than ever.
Tucked away in the heart of Louvre Abu Dhabi (yes, that Louvre), Marta is hosting the final Chess Night of the season and it's shaping up to be the most sophisticated soirée in the capital. Think: smooth jazz, sleek moves across the board and an atmosphere straight out of a speakeasy.
This exclusive event is part high-society hangout, part intellectual showdown. Whether you're a queen's gambit kind of player or just want to sip and spectate, it's the kind of night that serves style, strategy and social buzz in equal measure.
Live jazz? Check. Chess boards? Ready. Stylish crowd? Absolutely.
Ladies' tickets are Dhs250, gents pay Dhs400 and there's a minimum spend of Dhs250, so bring your appetite for bites, beats and bold moves. Dress code? Jazzy, of course – so pull out your swankiest speakeasy-chic threads.
Whether you're a grandmaster or a beginner with flair, Marta's Chess Night is your chance to mix pawns with patrons and sip mixed drinks beneath museum-grade masterpieces.
Dhs250 (ladies), Dhs400 (gents). Sat Jun 7, 8pm-1am. Marta, Louvre Abu Dhabi. (052 280 5885).
