Scorpion Club entertainment venue to open at Dubai Festival Plaza
One of Dubai's fastest-growing areas is getting a massive indoor entertainment venue.
Scorpion Club, a popular spot at the Cityland Mall, is opening a second venue at Dubai Festival Plaza – a lifestyle community mall based in Jebal Ali.
The entertainment venue is a neon-lit bowling, darts, sniper shooting, billiards, snooker and interactive gaming arena for people of all ages.
It will blend modern technology with classic games to create a fun environment for people in Dubai South.
As well as the new Scorpion Club, the mall has added Danube Home, a second Crate and Barrel Bazaar and an expanded Pan Home to its offering.

The new openings will provide those living and visiting Dubai South with more things to do and places to grab essential home furnishings.
Dubai South is set for a major upgrade in the coming years as work gets underway on converting Al Maktoum International Airport into the largest capacity airport in the world.
A brand new city within the city will be built in Dubai South as part of the plans. The aerotropolis has been under development and operation since 2007 in Dubai.
Dubai Festival Plaza also continues to grow, with Al-Futtaim Real Estate asset management director Hayssam Hajjar pointing out that it caters to the needs of locals.
He said: 'Festival Plaza, Jebal Ali has been steadily evolving into a lifestyle-driven community destination tailored to the needs of nearby residents with exciting home and entertainment options.
'The new additions align with our longstanding commitment to diversifying our retail mix, expanding our lifestyle offerings and investing in innovation, as well as our strategy of building deeper connections with the Jebel Ali and South Dubai communities.
'We are confident visitors will enjoy the enhanced experiences now available at the mall.'
