The high energy event will include participants from Dubai’s best hotels, bars and restaurants; each finalist has already won his way through a series of grueling qualifying heats to make it in to the final competition. Once crowned, the winner will then prepare for his quest towards the Global grand finale ‘The Liquid Oscars’ to be held in London next month. The Dubai WORLD CLASS bartender of the year will go head to head with other champions from key cities of the world.
