A new kind of space is arriving in Abu Dhabi. 1927, a private members’ house devoted to film, music, and the art of gathering, is set to open at Cinemacity Starlight in Marina Mall, introducing a more considered and intimate approach to entertainment in the city.
Designed as a cultural home rather than a traditional venue, 1927 brings together curated programming, dining, and social experiences within a refined, design-led environment. It is a space built for those who value atmosphere, conversation, and the experience of being part of something thoughtfully put together.
The house unfolds across a series of distinct yet interconnected spaces, each contributing to the overall experience. A central Dining Area anchors the offering, complemented by a more relaxed Lounge designed for conversation and late evenings. Beyond this, The Cabaret introduces a more intimate setting for live performances, while The Guild serves as a social hub for members to gather and connect. For a more private and discreet experience, The Vault offers a secluded space, reinforcing the sense of exclusivity that defines the house.
For a limited time, 1927 will open its doors to the public, offering a rare all-access preview before transitioning into a fully private, members-only destination on September 1st.
During this time, visitors can discover the space, explore the menu, and experience a film at 1927, while immersing themselves in an atmosphere that will soon be reserved for a select few. Every element of the house has been designed to encourage guests to gather, linger, and connect, moving between film, music, dining, and conversation in a seamless, considered flow.
Following this preview, 1927 will transition into a members-only house, with access granted through application.
Membership applications are now open at 1927.ae.
