It's one of the UAE's most well-known hot spots, but Blue Marlin Ibiza UAE will soon be hosting its goodbye party.
The beach club, which is located at Golden Tulip Al Jazira Hotel and Resort in Ghantoot, Abu Dhabi, will be closing down next month, it has revealed.
The water-side spot, an outpost of Ibiza's famed Blue Marlin night spot and restaurant, is hosting an Last Dance party on Friday, December 13, for fans to bid their farewells.
"After all these years, we would like to thank you all for all the memories, energy and happiness. On Friday, 13 December, we will have our last dance in Ghantoot," the Facebook event page states. "Let’s make this moment extraordinary."
Blue Marlin did, however, suggest that the venue may move locations, adding: "Until we meet again."
The beach club is known for bringing world-renowned DJs from the genres of house, techno and EDM to the UAE, as well as its day-to-night parties.
The club first opened in 2012, and only reopened for the season on September 13.
Its Last Dance party will feature performances by Welsh DJ and producer Jamie Jones, who heads up electronic music group Hot Natured, as well as DJ duo Rami Abousabe and Tamer Malki, who make up Bedouin and draw on their Middle Eastern heritage in their mixes.
The National has reached out to Blue Marlin for comment.
The Last Party will take place on Friday, December 13, 1pm to 11pm; free entry before 4pm; Blue Marlin, Golden Tulip Al Jazira Hotels and Resort, Sheikh Zayed Road, Ghantoot; for reservations calls 056 113 3400 or email reservation@bluemarlinibiza-uae.com

10 tips for entry-level job seekers
- Have an up-to-date, professional LinkedIn profile. If you don’t have a LinkedIn account, set one up today. Avoid poor-quality profile pictures with distracting backgrounds. Include a professional summary and begin to grow your network.
- Keep track of the job trends in your sector through the news. Apply for job alerts at your dream organisations and the types of jobs you want – LinkedIn uses AI to share similar relevant jobs based on your selections.
- Double check that you’ve highlighted relevant skills on your resume and LinkedIn profile.
- For most entry-level jobs, your resume will first be filtered by an applicant tracking system for keywords. Look closely at the description of the job you are applying for and mirror the language as much as possible (while being honest and accurate about your skills and experience).
- Keep your CV professional and in a simple format – make sure you tailor your cover letter and application to the company and role.
- Go online and look for details on job specifications for your target position. Make a list of skills required and set yourself some learning goals to tick off all the necessary skills one by one.
- Don’t be afraid to reach outside your immediate friends and family to other acquaintances and let them know you are looking for new opportunities.
- Make sure you’ve set your LinkedIn profile to signal that you are “open to opportunities”. Also be sure to use LinkedIn to search for people who are still actively hiring by searching for those that have the headline “I’m hiring” or “We’re hiring” in their profile.
- Prepare for online interviews using mock interview tools. Even before landing interviews, it can be useful to start practising.
- Be professional and patient. Always be professional with whoever you are interacting with throughout your search process, this will be remembered. You need to be patient, dedicated and not give up on your search. Candidates need to make sure they are following up appropriately for roles they have applied.
