BLING is an intimate, opulent nightclub at FIVE Palm Jumeirah that captures the spirit of old-school hip-hop and R&B, with Afrobeats and urban sounds from the US to the UK. The multi-level room is styled in 18th-century baroque, with a hand-painted Swarovski-encrusted mural, antique candelabras and ornate crown moulding. It is famous for its champagne show, guests can drive a supercar right onto the dance floor, and a live video system projects the night onto hidden screens around the club.
