The FUN-damentals
This is it—the perfect balance. We’re moving away from the "corporate suit" vibe and leaning into that high-end, late-night Dubai energy. It’s social, it’s global, and it’s for the grown-ups who still want to have a blast.
THE MIDNIGHT COLLECTIVE: Burj Views & Global Vibes 🌍🔥
Tired of the same old "networking" events that feel like a job interview? We’re flipping the script. Join us at Buhayra Lounge, Palace Downtown for a late-night social designed for the city’s global crowd.
This is where professionals, creatives, and entrepreneurs from every corner of the world meet under the moonlight. We’re keeping it predominantly 28+ to ensure the energy is mature, the conversations are real, and the fun is top-tier.
The Nightly Flow
10 PM – Late: The Social Spark ✨ We kick off with poolside beats and front-row seats to the Burj Khalifa. Grab a drink, soak in the skyline, and meet people who actually have a story to tell. No awkward icebreakers—just natural, high-energy vibes.
Midnight: The "Real Talk" Session 🎙️ When the city slows down, the real talk starts. Whether you’re swapping global business insights or sharing wild travel stories, this is where the actual networking happens—the kind that turns into real friendships and big ideas.
What to Expect
🌍 Global Crowd: Meet people from every continent in one of Dubai’s most iconic settings.
🍹 Poolside Sophistication: Chilled drinks, open air, and the best view in the city.
🔞 Mature Energy: We’re targeting a 28+ crowd—people who know how to balance a big career with a big night out.
🚫 Zero Pressure: No business cards required. Just bring your best energy and an open mind.
The Details
📍 Location: Buhayra Lounge, Palace Downtown (Poolside).

**Note: This is an invite-only session.**
**👋 Are you an advanced player?** Kindly add your name to the waitlist, and [click here to WhatsApp Sarfaraz (+971551899547)](https://wa.me/971551899547?text=Hey%20Sarfaraz!%20This%20is%20my%20first%20time%20joining%20Badminton%20For%20All%2C%20Dubai.) to confirm your slot.
📍 **Venue:** Baseline Sports Academy, Al Quoz *[(Google Maps)](https://maps.app.goo.gl/KvyZpc9AFR4pDZNCA)*.
We play **advanced** badminton here every Saturday, 7-9 PM.
**📝 Key Info**
This session is open for intermediate and advanced players of all nationalities, genders and races.
*Cost per session: 40 AED*
*Duration: Each session lasts 2 hours*
*Equipment: We use feather shuttlecocks; please bring your own racket*
*Slots: Booked on a first-come, first-served basis*
*Play: Players will be rotated around multiple courts and will get games similar to their level of play*
**Late Backout & No-Show Policy**
**We strictly enforce our late backout and no-show rules to ensure smooth operations.** Organising replacements on short notice is difficult and disruptive, especially as our organisers have day jobs. Please be mindful of our policy:
* **RSVP Policy:** Please RSVP for sessions exclusively through the Meetup app. WhatsApp is mainly for regular updates on attendance, timings and last-minute changes. Any requests made via WhatsApp might not be considered for session sign-ups.
* **Late Backouts:** Backing out within 9 hours of the session is considered a late backout. You will be required to pay the session fee in full, even if a replacement is found.
* **No-Shows:** If you fail to show up without notice, you must still pay for the session.
* **Respect for the Organisers:** Our organisers finalise the list the night before or early morning. Last-minute changes mean they need to leave their work to arrange replacements. This affects not just the organisers but the overall experience of the players.
* **Waitlist Responsibility:** If you're on the waitlist and no longer wish to attend, it’s your responsibility to remove your name. We assume that anyone on the waitlist still wants to join the session if a spot opens up.
* **First-Come, First-Serve Basis:** We ensure fairness by adhering to a first-come, first-serve system. Please do not ask for special treatment or last-minute slots outside of this.
**Note: Players may cancel without penalty up to 9 hours before the session. After this time, the session fee applies regardless of waitlist status. Please book and cancel responsibly to avoid disruptions for everyone involved.**

Adventures in Ecological Horticulture
with Rebecca McMackin
Wednesday, March 18
1:00pm - 2:30pm
Gone are the days when a garden could be ornamental alone. We now recognize the impact that our land care practices have on the ecosystems around us, and can see the importance of encouraging biodiversity. Thankfully, we do not need to sacrifice beauty when we invite butterflies and songbirds into our gardens.
Rebecca McMackin has cultivated gorgeous landscapes in the toughest environments possible: urban parks, school playgrounds, and the sidewalks of New York City. She will take lessons from her work at Brooklyn Bridge Park, the Brooklyn Museum, and decades of research to share how those of us who are fortunate enough to care for land, can do it beautifully and ecologically.
Rebecca McMackin is an ecologically obsessed horticulturist and garden designer. She writes, lectures, and teaches on ecological landscape management and pollination ecology, as well as designs the rare public garden.
She is currently Lead Horticulturist for the American Horticultural Society, an Associate with the Harvard Divinity School’s Thinking with Plants and Fungi Initiative, and Consulting Arboretum Curator for Woodlawn Cemetery in the Bronx, NY.
Rebecca spent a decade as Director of Horticulture of Brooklyn Bridge Park, where she managed 85 acres of diverse parkland organically. Their research into cultivating urban biodiversity and ethical management strategies has influenced thousands of people and entire urban parks systems to adopt similar approaches.
She has been published by and featured in the New York Times, Gardens Illustrated, on NPR and PBS. Her garden for the Brooklyn Museum recently won the PPA’s Award of Excellence and her TED Talk has been viewed over a million times. She holds M.Sc. from Columbia University and University of Victoria in landscape design and biology and recently completed the Loeb Fellowship at the
Harvard Graduate School of Design.
This program is presented in partnership with Rooted in Bexley and generously funded by the Bexley Community Foundation and Bexley Community Author Series Fund.
