A guide to the whole Liwa region, not just the festival grounds.

Somewhere to eat that isn't a festival queue. A place to stay before the good ones sell out. What else is worth the drive, once the dunes are done. Save the places you want to come back to: they stay on your phone, no account needed. The map does too, offline pack included, so losing signal out in the dunes doesn't mean losing your way.

Plan before you go

Somewhere to stay before the good ones sell out. Your route, and where to stop for fuel on the way in — this is desert driving, and the app is built around that being true.

Once you're there

Places to eat that aren't inside the festival queue. Things to do beyond the dunes. The region's culture and heritage, and the landscape itself, once the racing's done for the day.

Each one a real place on a map, not a listing you can't act on.

Find what's around you

Search for a place by name or by what you're after. The map fills in around you, whether that's a specific spot you've heard about or just "somewhere to eat near here" — including the smaller finds, a pop-up stall or a stand that's only there for the season.

Save your favourites

Bookmark the places you want to come back to. They stay on your phone, no account needed, and they're still there with no signal.

Act on it

Directions to anywhere in the app, handed off to whichever maps app you already use. Where a place takes bookings or calls, that's one tap too.

The app knows this place

It's built for the people who live here as much as for visitors: Qibla works offline wherever you are and prayer times work offline in the UAE. Emergency numbers and practical desert safety sit right there too, the kind of thing that matters once you're actually here.
