Boxpark, Dubai’s hip urban destination by Meraas, is getting creative this outdoor season by hosting the Street Art Festival over three weekends. Until 9 November, you can discover your inner Da Vinci at the destination – all you have to do is spend AED100 at any of Boxpark’s retail outlets and you’re all set!

If you’re looking to take canvas painting up a notch, try your hand at graffiti on a digital wall near the new McDonald’s – not only is this form of expression environment-friendly, but you can take your creation home as a souvenir.

Children can go colour-crazy at their own art sessions and customise their caps, or brush and splash a masterpiece on canvas with paint, sand and stones.

And that’s not all. Watch the destination light up as brightly coloured gobo designs pop up all around and LED dancers take to the sidewalks to spark a lively aura.
