OFF THE RECORD by Dubai Business Book Club

Off The Record — A Dubai Business Book Club Experience
📖 Sunday, 5 July · 10 AM onwards 📍 Lolo House, Al Quoz
A quiet morning to read, craft & unplug.
We spend all week reacting to notifications. This is the opposite of that.
Off The Record is a phones-away morning where you come to actually do the thing — read your book, sketch, journal, work on that idea, or just sit and think about nothing at all. No agenda. No pressure. No pings.
How it works:
🤫 The Reading Side — phones away, full quiet. Read, draw, write, work, or stare at the wall. This is your deep space.
All phones will be kept away on a table..!
💬 The Talking Corner — a dedicated spot for those who want to discuss ideas, swap feedback, or talk through what they're working on. Step over here when you want company.
The rules are simple:
Keep the reading side quiet — protect other people's focus
Want to talk? Head to the talking corner
Phones stay away (you'll survive, promise)
Laptops welcome if you're here to work — but reading, drawing, and thinking are what we're really here for
Come and go as you please. Arrive quietly, leave inspired.
Bring a book. Bring an idea. Or just bring yourself.
