Dubai's French Migrant Population



As one of the most globally influential tourist destinations in the world, it is no surprise that Dubai attracts immigrants from all corners of the globe. A fascinating cultural melting pot, the city has become home to people from countries across Asia, Europe and beyond.

One fascinating demographic of migrants within the city are the French people who now call Dubai home. Drawn to the glitz and glamour of the city, French people have been flocking to the region for several years now and the population base continues to grow.

The French working migrants are mostly university-educated and have settled in Dubai in a quest for better paying and more challenging professional opportunities. French banks are very active in the region and this has provided these migrants with good job prospects in the area, whilst powerful French multinationals and corporations such as Airbus, Orange and Alstom are also active in the economy.

The French migrants who have settled in Dubai bring their own culture and vibrant flair to the cities diverse melting pot. French-style bistros, cafes and late-night bars offer an escape from the hustle and bustle of city life and can be found in many of the city’s souks and districts. French food has also grown in popularity in the last few years, with a number of markets now stocking a variety of French produce, including cheeses, wines and other delicacies.

Additionally, in recent years we have seen a rise in French-themed festivals and events taking place in Dubai. Festivals such as the Dubai French Festival, which showcase the best of French culture music, fashion, food, and art, have become hugely popular and successful amongst both the French and global communities.

Overall, the French population in Dubai has certainly grown in recent years, in line with Dubai’s rise in popularity and wealth. Their unique culture and heritage clearly adds to the vibrancy of the city and it appears that it will only continue to grow in the future.
