Resident DJ Marios Tsiaprazis plays enigmatic and ambient live sets in the NYX underground lounge in DIFC.
Those in the know should already be aware of NYX, the hidden speakeasy situated beneath chic DIFC restaurant GAIA. The sleek and sophisticated lounge has become a popular staple on the city’s nightlife scene and is now adding a new resident DJ to the mix.
DJ Marios Tsiaprazis will play nightly from 10pm, curating an energetic and vibrant ambience reminiscent of vivacious summer nights on the Greek Isles. With a musical career spanning 22 years and renowned as a creator of energy and atmosphere, DJ Marios creates a journey within every set he plays and uses his music as a tool to fuel excitement and entertainment. His love of house music and unique ability to connect guests through his expressive beats complements the cultural elements of the contemporary and luxurious Greek environment.

Hidden behind a kitsch Greek souvenir shop on the lower level of Gaia, NYX is a discreet venue designed to provide an exclusive nightlife experience for those that enter. A stark contrast to the light restaurant upstairs that represents the mountains, sun and sea, NYX is influenced by the Greek Gods, Zeus & Chaos. The rich and vivid design integrates exquisite red velvet textures with gold furniture, detailing and accessories, creating an exclusive paradise for guests to indulge.
NYX serves classic cocktails with a modern twist that pays tribute to Greece’s culture, rich history, myths and stories. A hand-designed menu of Greek-Mediterranean small plates pairs perfectly with the mixologist’s creations.
