Editorial Policy

WOW Emirates publishes guides, news and events for people who live in or visit Dubai. This page explains how we choose what to cover, how we check it and how we put things right. Our site policies cover feedback, ethics and diversity in more detail.

What we publish

We cover what is useful to someone in Dubai this week: what is on, where to eat, days out, places to stay, and the practical side of living here.

How we check

• Dates, times, prices, addresses and phone numbers come from the venue, the organiser or an official source, checked before we publish.
• If we cannot confirm a detail, we leave it out rather than guess.
• Guides show the date they were last updated. Events leave the calendar by themselves once they end.

Independence

Our editors decide what we cover and what we say about it. Advertising pays for the site, but a commercial relationship never buys a positive review or a place in our recommendations. Paid content is always labelled, as set out in our sponsored content policy.

Photos

We use real photos of the place or event: our own, or images supplied by the venue or organiser with permission. We do not use AI-generated pictures of real places.

Events sent in by readers

Anyone can submit an event. Nothing goes live as sent: we check every detail with the venue or organiser, rewrite it in our own words and only publish what we can confirm.

Corrections

If something we published is wrong or out of date, tell us through the contact page or at info@wow-emirates.com. We look at every message within two working days. Small slips such as typos are fixed quietly; a wrong fact is corrected with a note saying what changed and when.
