Match Night
Football & Fight Nights
Football, boxing and UFC on the big screens at both OCCO venues — so the big fixture feels like a night out, not a night in.
Looking for somewhere to watch football in Dubai that isn’t a plastic sports bar? Both OCCO venues turn into a sports lounge on the big nights: major football fixtures, boxing title fights and UFC cards on the big screens, with a crowd that actually reacts.
Pick your version of the night. OCCO Business Bay at Hyde Dubai has a full bar — so match night can turn into a party. OCCO Hessa in Al Barsha keeps it to food, shisha and the screens — so you get the same match in a relaxed lounge.
