In the UAE, Covid-19 and associated societal constraints already appear to be a thing of the past. According to the World Travel and Tourist Council, the travel and tourism industry in the United Arab Emirates has recovered significantly, with the third-fastest increase in the Middle East last year (WTTC).
According to the worldwide organization’s most recent “Travel and Tourism Economic Impact 2022” study, the industry recovered by 41.1% in the UAE in 2021, helped by a 48.8% gain in revenues from foreign tourists.
New restaurants, clubs, theaters, and other entertainment venues keep on mushrooming across all emirates. So much so that keeping up pace single-handedly with such growth is becoming tougher for newsmakers in the industry.
But one player, ShortList Dubai, seems to have got it all under control, and quite perfectly for that matter. For 7 years, the publication has been effectively meeting the need for information and entertainment news in the country, helping people make educated decisions.
7 years of keeping UAE infotained
ShortList Dubai, with its extensive and fresh selection of bitesize entertainment & lifestyle news, has been keeping the country informed and entertained at the same time.
While people increasingly visit ShortList Dubai for fresh lifestyle related updates that include events & happenings and latest attractions around town, it has also become a go-to platform for other happenings around the country as well.
The latest happenings on political, social, and business fronts are also covered well by ShortList Dubai. Besides, the platform has also become a favorite for those interested in the latest happenings in the world of business as it covers everything from banking to finance and insurance to real estate.
A journey of immense success
Launching in 2015, ShortList Dubai now offers it all besides keeping a strong grip on its lifestyle niche. Originally a UK-based magazine focused on entertainment and fun (mostly for men), ShortList Dubai offers everything for everyone.
ShortList Dubai comes in the shapes of a print magazine and a website, both of which have a massive readership countrywide. 70,000 copies of ShortList magazine are distributed across both Dubai and Abu Dhabi, delivering an essential read every week.
ShortList also offers newsletters that are summaries of the week’s top events with hints, previews, and features to help you optimize your free time and make informed spending and leisure decisions. ShortList Dubai’s reviews of businesses and venues have especially been popular and helpful among its readers.
A long and exciting road ahead
When it launched, the magazine aimed to be the authority on the best in cuisine, fashion, entertainment, lifestyle, technology, and sports in the UAE, a goal that it has already achieved. It provides you weekly recommendations on what to do, see, buy, eat, and drink so you can make the best of your time and money.
Today, ShortList Dubai has expanded across different verticals, serving the information needs of people looking for the latest happenings in technology, business, society, and more. The magazine stays committed to meeting the information needs of the UAE more effectively moving forward.
