​Dubai Muscle Beach at Sheraton JBR

Mix fitness and fun at Dubai Muscle Beach. The two-day outdoor fitness event promises an assortment of exciting competitions, fitness challenges, live shows and prizes for anyone passionate about health, wellness, and a day well spent in the outdoors on 9 -10 November. If you’re not up for the sports challenges, show up to support participants and make the most of the outdoor gym, pool and beach.

Run by Universal Muscle Fitness Fashion, the highlight of the event will be the IFBB bodybuilding amateur championship, along with the fitness and fashion competitions. Split into different categories, including men’s physique and muscular physique, participants will up for the chance to win Dhs5,000 for first place.

There are various other adrenaline pumping events to get involved with, including a Beach Volleyball Regional Championship, a military core training bootcamp, the IronStar Swimrun Dubai which mixes swimming with crossfit, MMA fights to cheer on along with morning beach yoga to get you limbered up for the day.

Last year’s event saw 500 competitors take part in the events, along with 3,000 attendees partying it up the fittest way possible.

It couldn’t have come at a better time, as the Dubai Fitness Challenge is well under way, too, and there are plenty of activities to get involved in. With all that fitness going on, you have to keep yourself fed, so it’s a good thing The Palm Garden Restaurant and Terrace will be setting up its beach party brunch over the two days.

This is a party you don’t have to feel guilty about indulging in.

Tickets are going from Dhs100 so be sure to book your spot.
