Hatta has always been a favourite winter escape for Dubai residents. The cooler temperatures, mountain views and simple, outdoorsy vibe make it an easy weekend plan. This year, the area gets a new attraction that blends entertainment with the natural setting: the Roxy Cinemas Hatta cinema dome.
Roxy Cinemas has set up its first-ever cinema dome at Hatta Wadi Hub, turning movie nights into a relaxed outdoor experience. The dome sits right at the base of the mountains, giving visitors a mix of film, fresh air and scenery you don’t usually get in a cinema. It’s running through the winter season and has quickly become one of the standout additions to the area.
The setup is straightforward — bean bags spread out in front of the dome, warm lighting, and a casual atmosphere that feels very different from mall cinemas. It’s the kind of place where families, couples and groups of friends can unwind after a day at Hatta’s trails, dam or cycling routes.
Films for Every Mood
The cinema dome screens a mix of titles suitable for all ages. Family-friendly animations, new releases, thrillers and Arabic films are part of the schedule. It’s a simple lineup, but it works well for the location. Most films come with Arabic subtitles, making it easier for diverse audiences.
Evenings at Hatta tend to be breezy this time of year, so visitors often drop by early to settle in with snacks before the movie starts. The bean-bag seating adds to the relaxed experience, and many visitors say it feels more like a gathering than a typical cinema night.
A New Reason to Visit Hatta This Season
Hatta is known for kayaking at the dam, mountain biking, hiking, and adventure sports at Wadi Hub. The cinema dome adds a new leisure element for those who prefer a slower evening after a day of activities. It’s also a convenient option for families who want something light and easy.
Dubai residents often plan short evening drives to Hatta during the winter, especially on weekends. With the Roxy Cinemas dome now part of the area, movie nights under the mountains create a new reason to visit.
Outdoor experiences for Dubai Residents
Outdoor experiences always do well in Dubai during winter. With cooler temperatures and longer nights, residents look for activities beyond malls and indoor entertainment. The Roxy Cinemas Hatta cinema dome taps into exactly that — simple, comfortable and different from regular cinema plans.
It also appeals to those who prefer quieter plans away from the city without needing a long drive. And because it’s set inside Hatta Wadi Hub, visitors can pack multiple activities into one trip: trails in the morning, dam visits in the afternoon, and a movie at night.
The Experience in a Nutshell
- Open-air dome structure set against the mountains
- Lounge-style bean-bag seating

- Classic cinema snacks and beverages

The combination of nature and cinema makes the dome feel like a curated winter experience rather than just another screening spot.
The launch of the Roxy Cinemas Hatta cinema dome adds something refreshing to the UAE’s winter calendar. It blends the comfort of movie nights with the charm of Hatta’s natural landscape, making it a great option for both residents and visitors. With its simple setup and scenic backdrop, it’s set to become one of the season’s must-try experiences.
