Dubai - Looking for something to do? Here's our guide to spend your off days.

How to make the most of your Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Khaleej Times recommends...
Spooktacular session later 
Get ready to celebrate the spookiest night (near enough) of the year tonight in true Mexican style, with an evening of fearsome fun at Maya's Bar Tacos, Le Royal Méridien Beach Resort + Spa! Fear seekers can enjoy an evening of Halloween horrors, with outrageous outfits, a spooky set-up and dinner to die for! For just Dhs35, grab a ticket and redeem it at one of the many live cooking stations and food stands - all serving scarily good food. The one and only DJ Diego will also be taking over the decks to keep you entertained. The party kicks off from 7pm or so.

Tricky Bounce
Kids aged five-14 are invited to enter a world of music and fun as BOUNCE Abu Dhabi presents a supernatural Halloween spectacle today! Mini monsters can bounce off the walls and show off their best moves and tricks to win a treat for their efforts by impressing the host. Get there from 4pm to 8pm for the party.

Drift in
DRIFT Beach Dubai is welcoming back the world-renowned team from Ocean Club Marbella for the latest DRIFT X Ocean Club event on Saturday.  The pair's third collaboration will see DRIFT Beach Dubai taken over by its famous Spanish counterparts, who are bringing  Spanish DJs and singers from 12pm.

Sean Paul here
BASE Dubai continues its homerun of performances with Jamaican superstar Sean Paul performing on Saturday night. He's looking to make your Halloween weekend a frighteningly unforgettable fest. You know the hits to expect and you know it'll be crazy. Get there late and enjoy the pre-week vibes.   


Fly away
Fancy a seaplane tour for less? Seawings has recently announced a special offer for families. Take advantage of the 'Kids Fly Free' offer until November 30. For every adult ticket purchased, one child under 12 flies for free. The tours on offer include the Seawings Signature Tour - a 45 minutes scenic tour of Dubai and the Seawings Snapshot Tour - a 20 minutes tour of the city.


Party Saturday
We're in a futuristic mood, which is just as well because the exclusive Nikki Beach White Party with 'The Future is Here' theme is on all day Saturday. It'll celebrate Dubai's dream for a future full of creativity, ambitious initiatives and events that inspire others. Tying in nicely with Nikki Beach's mantra 'Celebration of Life', have a look at the astronaut dancers and resident DJs and go wild.

Select your preferred participating restaurant, look through the menu and choose 'buy one, get one free' from the drop-down menu and enjoy.
