On December 15, book your children into the grandest gingerbread house-making party in town. Our talented team of chefs will work individually with children to help them make and take home a gingerbread house so pretty that they may resist breaking it apart and eating it… at least for a little while.

Christmas Eve will be full of seasonal cheer with set menus at both Sayad and Mezzaluna, two of the Palace’s signature restaurants. On December 25, don’t miss the Emirates Palace Christmas Brunch, it’s one of the hottest brunch tickets in town on Christmas day. Le Vendome will be dressed up in all its Christmas finery with fine food, making it the perfect spot to celebrate with friends and family.

BBQ Al Qasr with its premium view of the New Year’s Eve fireworks, alongside Sayad, Mezzaluna and Le Vendome, will be hosting special NYE dinner celebrations for both in-house guests and outside visitors. Alternatively, ring in the New Year with an elegant gala dinner on the stunning Palace Terrace and as midnight nears, make your way to the beach for a breath- taking fireworks display.
