See some sporting stars in action
Abu Dhabi is no stranger to hosting world-class events, and this weekend we see one of the most popular ones return for its 11th outing.
The Mubadala Tennis World Championship is coming to town again, and bringing a whole host of top players with it.
Fans can watch the likes of Serena and Venus Williams, Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and more battle it out at Zayed Sports City from December 27-29.
And there's plenty of cool things to do outside the court, with the nearby Tennis Village hosting loads of events and activities.
From Dhs100. Dec 27-29. International Tennis Centre, Zayed Sports City (800 86 823).
Check out Street Food Fest
Abu Dhabi's newest foodie festival has gone down a treat since arriving earlier this month.
Visitors have been enjoying brilliant bites and affordable prices at The Mall at World Trade Center Abu Dhabi.
But all good things must come to an end, and the final day is December 29.
If you still need convincing, here's ten reasons why you absolutely can't miss it.
Splash the cash with Retail Abu Dhabi
A major sales bonanza has launched in Abu Dhabi with shoppers able to bag up to 90 percent off on your post-Christmas must-haves.
The huge sales frenzy began on December 26 and continues all the way until February 5 as part of the annual Retail Abu Dhabi (RAD) Season, launched by The Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi.
Some 18 malls across the capital, including Marina Mall, are hosting a string of awesome promotions.
And a number of other venues in the city will be getting into the spirit too, so keep an eye on http://radseason.ae/ for more details.
Try out a new brunch
Yes, we know you are probably still in a Christmas food coma and you couldn't possibly eat another bite.
But if you can manage to get off the sofa and put the Harry Potter boxset away, maybe Iris Yas Island is the place to be this Friday.
The hotspot has launched a new brunch, Le Brunch, and it already looks like a winner.
