If you thought September was just about back-to-school vibes and pumpkin spice… think again. At Bar Dali, it’s about turning the city’s nightlife dial all the way up and keeping it there. Guided by Beverage Director (and certified cocktail wizard) Vitor Hugo Lourenço, the team has lined up a month-long parade of bold menus, guest stars, and just enough surprises to keep even the most seasoned cocktail lover on their toes.
Bar Dali
Bar Dali, Maison Dali - Al A'amal Street - Dubai - United Arab Emirates
Bar Dali is a Mediterranean brasserie with Japanese precision, led by Chef Tristin Farmer. It blends bold, umami-rich flavours with surrealist artful ambience. The setting inside The Opus by OMNIYAT is theatrical, luxurious, and unforgettable.

30 Shades of Negroni – Because One is Never Enough
When: All September, 5pm till late
Price: AED 65
Bar Dali knows the Negroni deserves its own spotlight, so they’ve crafted four exclusive variations for the month. From the timeless Classico to the bubbly Velvet Royale, the delicate Dolce D’Amore, and the cheeky Banana Americano—it’s basically a love letter to the cocktail that never goes out of style.
GRWM: Get Red With Me – A Night of Red Velvet Heat

Think disco grooves, 80s funk, and R&B soul all dressed in crimson lighting. DJ Hype is at the decks, Donna Summer is in the air, and Prince-level funk is in your glass. Bonus points if you show up looking like you just stepped out of a music video—because Bar Dali is literally rolling out the red carpet for your dancing shoes.
Double Chicken Please – NYC Takeover
When: September 23, 7pm till late
Price: AED 65
Straight from New York City (and ranked 14th on the World’s 50 Best Bars list), Double Chicken Please is flying in for one night only. Their Negroni-inspired menu is set to crash into Bar Dali’s red-lit vibe in what they’re cheekily calling “Let’s Make Takeovers Great Again.” Expect technique, flair, and cocktails so good they’ll make you wonder if you accidentally teleported to the Lower East Side.
Fountain Farewell – Because Why Not a Negroni Fountain?
When: September 27, 6pm till late
Price: AED 149 per person
Closing Negroni Week with pure drama, Bar Dali is rolling out an actual Negroni fountain. Yes, endless pours, flowing like liquid poetry. Gather your crew, raise a glass (or several), and toast to the kind of night that deserves a standing ovation.
Final Sip
September at Bar Dali isn’t just a calendar of events—it’s a full-on cocktail festival disguised as a month. Whether you’re here for one takeover or the entire Negroni parade, one thing’s certain: you’ll leave with stories worth retelling (and maybe a slightly redder wardrobe).
