Barrels: An unpretentious, cosy, charming establishment, Barrels is one underground pub that race fans don’t want to jump over. A previous gong holder of Time Out Dubai’s Best Sports Bar, Barrels has real pedigree when it comes to showing live sport with more than dozen TV screens including a mega screen ensuring that horse heads won’t miss a single trot of action on Saturday March 27. With a great happy hour this is one place you definitely want to watch the Dubai World Cup.
Open daily noon-3am. Majestic City Retreat Hotel, Bur Dubai (04 501 2533).
Brew House: The going will be good with the amount of deals on food and drinks this slice of Americana in Business Bay is offering race fans. Happy hour sees mixed drinks and house grape coming in at Dhs25 from noon until 9pm with 50 percent knocked off grub from noon until 4pm. Should that not pique interests, the bucket deal of five selected beverages from Dhs99 is certainly worth a look at one of the best places to watch the Dubai World Cup in 2021.
Prices vary. Open daily noon-3am. Al Amal Street, Behind Empower Business Bay, Opposite Safeer Tower 2, (04 571 3300).
Crown & Lion:This is one of top sports bar in town so it is obviously a cracking spot to watch the Dubai World Cup. With tonnes of screens in all directions, every seat provides great viewing of the drama. But once the winner have been pinned and the Gold Cup has been hoisted, get stuck into a game of darts, enjoy a game of footie or grab a bite to eat at the winner of Time Out Dubai’s best pub food 2020.
Open daily 11am-3am. Byblos Hotel, Barsha Heights (04 448 8000).
Fibber Magee's: Leave Dubai at the door and step into Dublin with Fibber Magee’s. Hearty food, great prices, bucket loads of black stuff and wall mounted screens make this Irish establishment a must on race goers places to watch the Dubai World Cup. And once the racing is done at Meydan, get ready for some the best craic you will enjoy in the UAE.
Open daily 8am-2am. Saeed Tower One, Sheikh Zayed Road (04 332 2400).
Garden on 8: Whereas some pubs revel in the tight, compactness that only a big sports event can produce, garden on 8’s outdoor terrace is the anecdote to those close quarters. Based in Dubai Media City, there are rows and row of benches meaning, race fans are more likely to win the chase than not have a place to watch the Dubai World Cup.
Open Sat-Wed noon-midnight, Thu-Fri noon-1am. Media One Hotel, Dubai Media City (04 427 1000).
McGettigan’s: While you might not be trotting around the racecourse at Meydan this year, ladies and gents can still get themselves dolled up for the Dubai World Cup at McGettigan’s.

Fri Mar 27 2pm-5pm. Various locations including JLT.
The Dubliner’s: An Irish pub not showing the horse racing would be as scandalous as not serving any black stuff. Fortunately, The Dubliner’s pub knows its stuf when it comes to the Dubai World Cup. Old wooden fittings, great smell of varnish and of course, a big auld projector makes this one of the top places to watch the Dubai World Cup this year.
Open daily noon-2am. Le Méridien Dubai Hotel & Conference Centre, Garhoud (04 702 2455).

Horse racing first started when humans domesticated horses. It is a very popular sport and is loved by many people from all around the world. The fans of the sport are in different countries and not everyone can be present at the location where the event takes place, that’s where a VPN comes to the rescue. In some countries, you may not be able to view the live stream of horse racing due to geo-restrictions.
