Having worked within Dubai’s hospitality sector for over eight years, I can confidently say this concept is unlike anything this city’s food scene has ever seen before, and I am proud to be part of the team bringing the Market to life in Dubai. I look forward to welcoming guests to Time Out Market Dubai very soon.”

Didier Souillat, CEO of Time Out Market, said: “Time Out Market Dubai will create a vibrant reflection of Dubai’s thriving culinary scene, offering diners the best food and cultural concepts that the city has to offer.
