Free Things to Do in Dubai This October: Fitness, Yoga & Line Dancing at The Plaza Season
Looking for free things to do in Dubai this October? The Plaza Season at Uptown Dubai has revealed its latest community calendar, with everything from an outdoor evening wellness session to line dancing and a Saturday morning bootcamp – all completely free to attend.
Taking place at The Plaza at Uptown Dubai, the October programme is designed to make the most of Dubai’s returning outdoor season, with activities spread across evenings and weekends.
The 21,000-square-metre open-air space is located close to JLT and Dubai Marina and is a short walk from DMCC Metro Station. There’s also free parking for guests.
Here are three free events to add to your October calendar.
Evening Reset by YOFIT – 8 October
Start with an evening dedicated to movement and wellness as YOFIT Hot Studios takes over The Plaza for Evening Reset.
The outdoor session is designed for different experience levels, so you don’t need to be a regular yogi to join. Expect an evening of stretching, movement and time outdoors as the sun goes down.
Date: Thursday, 8 October 2026
Time: 5:30 PM – 9:30 PM
Location: The Plaza, Uptown Dubai
Price: Free with advance booking

Jamboree by Bootscoot – 15 October
If you’ve been wanting to try something a little different, Bootscoot is bringing line dancing to The Plaza.
Jamboree is designed for beginners as well as those already familiar with the moves. Participants will be guided through the steps, so you can arrive without knowing how to line dance and learn as you go.
You can come with friends or simply turn up solo for an evening that combines dancing, movement and a more social approach to getting active.
Date: Thursday, 15 October 2026
Time: 6:30 PM – 9 PM
Location: The Plaza, Uptown Dubai
Price: Free with advance booking

F45 Bootcamp – 24 October
For an active start to the weekend, F45 Springs Souk is hosting a free outdoor bootcamp at The Plaza.
Taking place on Saturday morning, the two-hour session brings the F45 workout experience outdoors, making it a good one to bookmark if you prefer group training or want to try something new without committing to a membership.
And with the session finishing at 10 AM, there’s still plenty of time for a well-earned weekend breakfast or coffee afterwards.
Date: Saturday, 24 October 2026
Time: 8 AM – 10 AM
Location: The Plaza, Uptown Dubai
Price: Free with advance booking

A New Spot for Free Outdoor Activities in Dubai
The October calendar follows the launch of The Plaza Season, a year-round programme bringing fitness, wellness, entertainment, markets and other community experiences to Uptown Dubai.
The location makes it particularly convenient for residents around JLT, Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah, while its proximity to DMCC Metro Station means you don’t necessarily need to drive.
All three October activities are free to attend, but advance booking is required.
More events are expected to be added as Dubai moves further into its cooler outdoor months, making The Plaza one to keep checking if you’re looking for affordable – or completely free – ways to spend your weekends and evenings in the city.
