Live & Kicking: Throwback 90s & Noughties Party 2026 in Dubai

About Live & Kicking: Throwback 90s & Noughties Party 2026 in Dubai

Live & Kicking: Throwback 90s & Noughties Party takes over the Theatre by QE2 in Dubai on Saturday, 24 October 2026. Part of a Saturday afternoon party series, it is three hours of music, dancing, party food and drinks aboard the Queen Elizabeth 2 at Port Rashid.

This edition rewinds to the decades of boybands, girl power, dance anthems and pop classics. Think of the songs that filled the charts, the school discos, the car stereos and the dance floors, all brought back for one nostalgic afternoon.

Live performers keep things moving from start to finish, and guests are encouraged to sing, dance and pose for photos. If you have ever wanted to party like it is 1999 (and 2009), this is your moment.

What to Expect

Live Performers

The afternoon is led by live performers who work through the biggest hits of the 90s and Noughties. The performers are not named on the event page, but the focus is clear: big choruses and plenty of “remember this one?” moments.

Party Food and Drinks

Buffet-style party food and unlimited drinks are included for the full three hours, depending on your package. The bar opens 30 minutes before the party starts, so you can grab a drink and find your table before the music kicks off.

Fancy Dress Optional

The organisers invite you to dress as your favourite pop icon. Fancy dress is not required, but dressing to match the vibe is half the fun, and it makes for great photos.

Group Seating

If your group is buying tickets separately, pick one group host name and have everyone enter it at checkout. The team will use it to seat you together. Groups of fewer than six may be combined with other guests.

If you need access without steps or a wheelchair space, email tickets@otbuae.com before you buy so the team can help.
