The 6,000sq ft venue is the latest move from Vision Hospitality as it expands its F&B and entertainment portfolio across the UAE.
McGettigan’s has added a new beachfront address to its UAE portfolio, with Vision Hospitality officially opening McGettigan’s Bla Bla at JBR as the group looks to build on the destination’s F&B and entertainment proposition.
Speaking exclusively to Caterer Middle East about the launch, Dennis McGettigan, Founder and CEO of Vision Hospitality, said the 6,000sq ft venue is designed to drive footfall across multiple dayparts, while revealing plans to introduce further hospitality concepts across the wider Bla Bla complex.
Overlooking the Arabian Gulf and Ain Dubai, McGettigan’s Bla Bla brings the Irish brand’s signature pub offering together with live entertainment, sport and all-day dining. The venue features indoor and outdoor spaces and operates from breakfast through to late-night dining, with live music seven nights a week and live sport shown across large HD TVs and a giant LED screen.
The opening follows Vision Hospitality’s acquisition of Bla Bla Dubai in March 2026 and forms part of a broader strategy to develop the site with a mix of distinct F&B and entertainment concepts.
