House of Pops Opens More UAE Stores
Healthy treats on a stick are now available at Dubai Festival City and Sharjah Rahmania Mall. The new openings underline the brand’s growing success, with the first stand-alone store in Sharjah.
House of Pops is marking the new year with a host of exciting new store openings – including its first in-mall kiosks and presence in Sharjah.
The brand’s instantly-recognisable brightly designed kiosks can now be found in Dubai Festival City Mall and in the Dubai Festival Plaza. The first House of Pops stand-alone store is in Rahmania Mall, Sharjah’s newest shopping and leisure community destination.
CEO Mazen Kanaan says: “We are constantly looking at ways to ensure our healthy treats reach as many people as possible. The Dubai Festival City area is always lively, and we are looking forward to serving people both inside the mall and at their homes since we will also be expanding our delivery services”
“Our Sharjah opening is extremely exciting for us. Rahmania Mall saw an impressive rise in visitor numbers in 2022, and we shouldn’t deny the good people of Sharjah the chance to enjoy one of our delicious pops in this lovely new neighbourhood destination. Our first Sharjah kiosk has been placed after a great many requests for one via our social media channels.”
Mazen says the Rahmania Mall is also a strategic location for better servicing of online orders in the Northern Emirates. The store is located in front of the mall’s anchor store, Sharjah Co-op, and is open from 10 am to 10 pm every day.
The Festival City Mall outlet – outside the Nike retail space – is also open from 10 am-10 pm, serving healthy fresh treats on a stick throughout the day. This latest investment in new outlets brings the number of kiosks, bikes and stores to 15 in the UAE, including Yas Mall. The ground-breaking ice pops and ice creams combine natural ingredients, hand-crafted recipes, sustainability and happiness in an unforgettable treat – the perfect festive gift. Each bar makes a satisfying, indulgent treat – without any added refined sugars, artificial fats, colourings or nasties.
House of Pops’ mission is to deliver healthier snacks in a region renowned for having a sweet tooth. Its ‘pops’ are full of natural fibre and made only with plant-based ingredients. The company’s philosophy is aligned with the UN’s SDG goals, including sustainability, good health for all, and minimal resource wastage.

UBK AT MÖVENPICK JUMEIRAH LAKES TOWERS RAISES A GLASS FOR DUBAI’S MOST LOYAL COMPANIONS WITH “PAWS & POUR”


Some things in life stay beautifully constant, and for many Dubai residents, that has been their pets. Through everyday routines, slow days, and everything in between, pet parents have built their lives around their four-legged companions in the most natural, heartwarming way. UBK at Mövenpick Jumeirah Lakes Towers is celebrating that bond with Paws & Pour, a feel-good gesture for guests who stayed in Dubai with their pets during the recent period of regional uncertainty.
Visit UBK, show a photo of you and your pet from the past two months in Dubai, and enjoy a complimentary non-alcoholic drink on the house every Sunday only from 12pm-12am. Just a simple cheer to a not-so-simple bond. Because UBK has always been proudly pet-friendly, especially with Paws & Play running Sunday to Thursday from 12pm to 7pm, where dogs are very much part of the vibe. Plus, guests can enjoy 30% off food and beverages while spending time with their furry plus-ones.
Paws & Pour is UBK doing what it does best, keeping things easy, welcoming, and full of personality. A little toast to loyalty, companionship, and the pets who make every day better just by being in it.

YOUR FAMILY HOLIDAY JUST GOT A WHOLE LOT MORE INTERESTING AT SIYAM WORLD
Part of the Lifestyle Collection of Sun Siyam, Siyam World has never really done “ordinary.” And with two of its most high-energy island experiences now firmly on the weekly roster, families, groups and anyone with a competitive streak have even more reason to book that trip.
Lace Up: The Siyam World 3K Wellness Run:
Every week, guests gather at the start line for the Siyam World 3K Wellness Run, where good vibes meet great views. Clearly marked pathways guide the way to a marathon-style route around the island but the rules are simple: go at your own pace, take in the views, and enjoy the moment. Run it, jog it, or power-walk it with a smoothie in hand. No judgment here. Cross the finish line and you’ll earn an exclusive Siyam World 3K Run badge, the most stylish souvenir you’ll take home, and the ultimate bragging rights for completing a 3K on the most epic island in the Maldives. It’s all about moving, smiling, and enjoying the moment.

Game Faces On: The Amazing Race
For families and groups ready to turn up the heat, The Amazing Race is exactly what it sounds like, chaotic, competitive, and seriously good fun. Teams of up to five kick off at the starting point before racing across the island, completing challenges and hunting down clues at every turn. Five challenges. Multiple locations. Zero time to waste. It’s a test of speed, teamwork and quick thinking with a generous helping of chaos thrown in for good measure. And the rewards? Very worth running for. The winning team takes home a complimentary excursion, second place hits the waves on a banana boat, and third place gets behind the wheel at the Maldives’ first-ever resort based electric go-kart circuit. Not a bad consolation prize.
Whether you’re chasing that runner’s high, racing your kids across the island, or just looking for something a little different from the usual sun-lounger routine, Siyam World delivers. Every experience is designed to bring people together, keep the energy high, and create the kind of memories that don’t fade with the tan.
A World Beyond Your Wildest.
Siyam World’s summer offer makes it easier than ever to say yes. Save up to 45% off, enjoy USD 150 resort credit, and settle in to Premium 24hrs WOW! All-inclusive from the moment you arrive. Stay 4 nights and a seaplane transfer is on the house — stay 7 and that extends to two guests, plus a floating breakfast for two. And for families, children under 12 stay completely free when sharing with adults. The only question is how long you can stay. Book your stay NOW.
