For one night only, catch the Canadian-Syrian DJ Sari from Vancouver playing a one-off public event on Belevari's Faris yacht at Yas Marina.
DJ Sari has recently moved to the UAE and has played at Eight Bar in the Souk Qaryat Al Beri, but has since been so inundated with requests to DJ that he is only doing private events.
Tonight, however, he will be spinning tunes at the F1 after party on board the Faris from 11pm. Tickets are Dh100. For more information and booking, contact Gail on 055 148 6975

Tips for job-seekers
- Do not submit your application through the Easy Apply button on LinkedIn. Employers receive between 600 and 800 replies for each job advert on the platform. If you are the right fit for a job, connect to a relevant person in the company on LinkedIn and send them a direct message.
- Make sure you are an exact fit for the job advertised. If you are an HR manager with five years’ experience in retail and the job requires a similar candidate with five years’ experience in consumer, you should apply. But if you have no experience in HR, do not apply for the job.
