Glamour, Gratitude and the Launch of Verve Rally in Dubai
Verve Rally is a luxury lifestyle adventure – a curated journey for those who love driving beautiful supercars through breathtaking landscapes, while enjoying fine dining, 5-star stays, and meaningful connections along the way. With no racing and no timing, it’s about the experience, not the speed. Since 2016, Verve Rally has united like-minded individuals who seek extraordinary travel with purpose, passion, and a touch of glamour.
We were thrilled to welcome our growing community of adventurers to the Verve Rally launch event in Dubai, hosted at the stunning Dragonfly Dubai by co-founders Marcus Ubl and Darshana Ubl. This wasn’t just an event – it was a celebration of shared passions, inspiring journeys, and the official arrival of Verve Rally in the UAE.
A Night of Elegance and Excitement
The atmosphere was electric, filled with kindred spirits who share a taste for refined adventure. We revealed our much-anticipated rally routes to Portugal, Monaco, the South of France, and for the first time ever — a 2026 teaser of Verve Rally No. 19: Oman to UAE.
We were deeply honoured to be joined by distinguished guests:
- Her Highness Sheikha Aisha Al Qasimi
- Her Highness Sheikha May Al Qasimi
- His Royal Highness Prince Dani Badwani
- Mr. Mohamed Al Banna and Mr Abdullah Al Banna whose presence made the evening truly remarkable.
