April often hosts Easter weekend, and Dubai has a basket-load of different ways to spend time enjoying and celebrating it with friends and family. Whether you're looking for a brunch over the weekend, or want to entertain the little ones with some fun festive activities, there are plenty of choices to satisfy every whim.

We've narrowed it down and highlighted a few that you may want to try this holiday period.
