SLS Dubai Hotel & Residences celebrated its official opening on Sunday with a star-studded event that brought the magnificent property to life. The opulent celebration, inspired by Hollywood Glamour, with a touch of gold, saw Dubai’s glitterati flock to the Downtown hotspot where they were treated to a whimsical wonderland with surprises at every turn.
The property received a glamorous makeover for the occasion, with extravagant décor weaving throughout the entire hotel, complete with an art installation of SLS’s signature rubber duck dressed to the nines in full gold.
Performances by DJ Tala Samman and Kendji Girac set the tone for the evening alongside impressive displays from roaming illuminating butterflies, live-motion art displays, gravity defying contortionists and gold living trees.
The SLS spectacle saw stars of Dubai and beyond joining for the occasion with Haifa Wehbe, Jacqueline Fernandez, Sara Sampio and Salma Abudeif, just to name a few in attendance.
The hotel has already had a phenomenal six months since opening in April,and the official launch was a chance to celebrate the achievements and hard work so far, as well as give a taste of the magic still to come.
