Welcome to Eden is a dystopian-thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The Netflix original series just rocketed up the most-watched lists worldwide — and for good reason. The Spanish show tells the story of young people invited to the most exclusive party in history, set in a secret island and organized by the brand of a new drink. But while they’re there, things take a sinister, cult-esque turn and they discover that their dream vacation will be anything but relaxing. The first season consists of eight episodes, with runtimes ranging between 36-46 minutes long. Word of caution: You may want to clear your schedule before you hit play — the binge-worthy show has had some of us canceling plans left and right.

The highly-anticipated final of Coppa Italia between Inter Milan and Juventus will kick off at 9pm tonight. Besides adding a prestigious trophy cup to their wall, the victors will bring home the largest sum of money in the tournament’s history this year. The two clubs will reportedly collect EUR 3 mn just for securing a spot in the final, while whichever team goes home with the trophy will receive another EUR 4.5 mn.

Premier League: Manchester City will move one step closer to retaining their Premier League crown when they face Wolves tonight at 9:15pm. There are a few other PL games tonight to keep the fantasy football players entertained, including Chelsea v Leeds United at 8:30pm, while Everton will face Watford at 8:45pm.

La Liga is also on tonight, with a handful of games including Atlético Madrid v Elche at 9:30pm, while Sevilla and Mallorca will face off at 8:30pm.

On the home front, Alexandria’s two giants Smouha and Al-Ittihad face off at 6:30pm, Pyramids will face Misr Lel Makassa at 9pm, and El Masry will face Ghazl El Mahalla shortly after we hit send at 4pm.

Eman Hussein’s latest paintings will be on display in an exhibition titled Mind the Gap at Ubuntu Art Gallery starting 7pm tonight. Through her artwork, Hussein aims to blur the boundaries between art, architecture and design. She blends together the conceptual categories of time, movement, and change, while exploring issues relating the atomic scale to the cosmic scale. The exhibit will run until 24 May.
