The month of Ramadan provides an array of unique experiences for families of all cultural backgrounds. Ramadan is indeed a time for reflection and spiritual renewal, but it is also a time to come together with friends and family to celebrate. In Dubai, this celebration takes on a new level of energy and excitement. From the stunning decorations and lights that adorn the city’s buildings to the vibrant street markets selling traditional foods and crafts, there is a tangible sense of excitement in the air. Dubai’s Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) has curated a list for us of some of the best ways to observe the Holy Month of Ramadan with family and friends.
GLOBAL GASTRONOMY HUB
One of the key reasons that Dubai is a quintessential destination to celebrate the month of Ramadan is its unmatched culinary offerings. Food is a vital part of Ramadan and Dubai offers an abundance of delicious options to break the fast. From traditional Middle Eastern delicacies such as dates, hummus and kebabs, to some of the finest dishes from Middle Eastern cuisine, there is something to satisfy every palate. Additionally, many hotels and restaurants offer special Ramadan Iftar buffets, allowing your family to indulge in all the flavours of the season.
THE MAJLIS IN WORLD TRADE CENTRE
This Ramadan, indulge in the true spirit of Arabian hospitality at The Majlis in World Trade Centre. Offering a scrumptious menu with live cooking, dessert and ice-cream stations, the DWTC Ramadan Majlis, one of Dubai’s longest-running Ramadan venues, hosts an eclectic mix of visitors, from VIP guests to business delegations to families looking to get together at Iftar and Suhoor.
