Reply to comment by The_CerealDefense in How NYC nightlife is getting in the sober spirit with alcohol-free bars by exgalactic

Abu Dhabi already has a ton of bars and nightclubs that sell alcohol. So a non-alcoholic bar wouldn't be a cultural problem.

I think it gets a little dicey for native Emirati Muslims (like they're technically not supposed to drink but it's not entirely enforced), but the country's population is 89% expats. Which includes a lot of people (mostly Indians, Pakistanis, Filipinos, etc but also Brits, Americans, Africans, Canadians, etc) who were born and raised there.
