Planning an event in Dubai requires more than creativity and coordination; it requires full compliance with regulations set by the Department of Economy and Tourism (DET), previously known as the Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DTCM). This applies to any public event that is ticketed (free or paid), promoted, or held in a public venue. These rules are in place to ensure safety, accountability, and cultural sensitivity across Dubai’s vibrant event industry.

Key DTCM/DET Requirements for Event Organizers:

1. Event Permit Application
Organizers must apply for official approvals, including details such as venue, date, time, capacity, ticket pricing, and artist/performer information.

2. Ticketing Compliance

All tickets must be issued through a DET-approved platform and include a unique DTCM barcode (ticket code) for validation and tracking purposes.

3. Post-Event Data Submission

After the event, organizers are required to submit detailed reports to DET, including attendance figures and financial summaries.
