"Dubai+ reflects the emirate's ambitious vision to keep pace with global shifts in media and digital broadcasting," said Mona Ghanem Al Marri, vice-chairperson and managing director of the Dubai Media Council. "We seek to enhance Dubai's competitiveness as a regional and global hub for creativity and media production by strengthening the industry ecosystem."

While a limited selection will be available through ad-supported video on-demand, the platform offers two paid subscription tiers: Dh21 per month or Dh210 annually.

Subscribers will have unlimited access to content across up to 10 devices and five profiles.
