Fortunately, Dubai has let us enjoy movie under the stars, movie by the beach and even outdoor cinema fests. Now, considering the current scenario, the UAE is considering to launch drive-in cinemas. Well, it looks like this will be the next new trend in the post-pandemic world.
What’s In It?
Your date night plans are finally sorted as UAE plans to launch drive-in cinemas in Dubai, Sharjah and RAK! The concept of drive-in cinema comes as a make-do solution to ensure social distancing in the current scenario. This way, UAE residents can enjoy their favourite films from the comfort of their own space, without the fear of infection.
As of now, all cinema halls and other entertainment sectors in the country remain shut. Residents are resorting to online streaming giants like Netflix and Amazon for daily dose of entertainment. This has also led to films rescheduling releases and theatre owners making alternate plans for a post-Covid world.
