ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY IN DUBAI

Original shows, our own artists and full production for events, venues and celebrations across the UAE and the GCC.

AN ENTERTAINMENT AGENCY THAT CREATES ITS OWN SHOWS

EFT Entertainment Group is an entertainment company in Dubai that creates and stages its own productions. Instead of passing your request to a list of freelancers, we build the show around your event: the theme, the audience, the room and the running order.

Our work covers corporate event entertainment, gala dinner entertainment, private and VIP celebrations, wedding entertainment and dinner shows for restaurants and hotels. When a project needs more than a performance, our show production team designs the staging, sound, light and screens, and our corporate event management team can run the whole event.

We are based in Dubai and perform across the UAE, in every GCC country and further afield, including Cyprus.

WHAT A GOOD ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY TAKES OFF YOUR HANDS

Booking entertainment in Dubai involves more than choosing an act. Someone has to match the performance to the guests, fit it around speeches and dinner service, brief the venue, check the stage and power, and obtain the permits that the event and every artist need. When those jobs are split between several suppliers, gaps appear on the night.

With EFT, one team handles all of it: concept, casting, costumes, rehearsals, technical requirements and permits. You get one quote, one contact and a show that has been rehearsed as a whole before your guests see it.

SHOWS, ARTISTS AND ACTS

Every programme is built from our own repertoire and adapted to your event. These are the formats clients book most often. Each can run as a single highlight or as a sequence across the evening.

Full productions built around a concept, such as Time Machine, Cinema, Circus, Mykonos White Show or The Five Elements, with dancers, costumes, music and staging designed as one piece.

Shows inspired by cultures from around the world, from our Kalinka-Malinka Russian programme to Venetian, Spanish, Greek and East Asian themes, performed in authentic costume.

Aerial acts, acrobatics and movement theatre for the moments that need height and spectacle: an opening, a product reveal or the finale of a gala.

Vocalists, instrumentalists and bands for receptions, dinners and after-parties, with repertoire chosen for your guests and for each part of the evening.

Dinner shows and immersive dining concepts for restaurants, hotels and private dinners, with the performance woven between the courses rather than staged after them.

Costumed characters and walkabout artists who greet guests on arrival and set the theme before the main programme begins.

WHY CHOOSE EFT AS YOUR ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY

Dubai has many entertainment agencies. Most of them represent artists; we produce shows. That changes what you can ask for, and how reliably it is delivered on the night.

  • Original productions: shows are created and rehearsed in-house, not booked from a catalogue.

  • Our own artists and costumes: the people and the wardrobe on stage are ours, so quality is consistent from one event to the next.

  • One contractor: performers, show design, technical production and permits come from the same team.

  • 20+ years internationally: licensed in Abu Dhabi, operating from Dubai and working across the GCC.

WHO WE CREATE ENTERTAINMENT FOR

Private clients. Weddings, milestone birthdays and family celebrations, with entertainment planned around the people in the room. See private event entertainment and birthday entertainment.

ENTERTAINMENT ACROSS THE UAE AND THE GCC

Dubai is our base, but our shows travel. We perform across the UAE, from Abu Dhabi and Sharjah to the northern emirates, and in every GCC country: Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman and Kuwait. We have also produced events further afield, including in Cyprus.

For events outside Dubai we plan the travel and logistics for the cast and crew, check the venue’s technical set-up in advance, and obtain the permits each country and venue requires, so the show arrives ready to perform.

SEASONAL AND THEMED NIGHTS

Part of our year is built around the calendar. We produce New Year and Christmas parties, Halloween shows and programmes for national occasions, as well as one-off themed nights for restaurants and hotels. Seasonal dates book up first, so if you have a fixed date in December, tell us early.

WORKING WITH EFT

Tell us the date, the venue, the number of guests and what the entertainment should do for your event. We reply with a show concept and a quote. Once you approve it, we cast, rehearse, prepare the costumes and the technical plan, obtain the permits and deliver the show on the day.

Need the whole event managed, not only the entertainment? Our corporate event management team can plan it from start to finish.
