Where can I spend New Year’s Eve

in

Dubai, UAE

?

@Kitchen 6 Wrap up the year with a family-friendly dinner at Kitchen6. The New Year’s Eve buffet has dishes from all over the world, plenty of choice for everyone at the table and a fun atmosphere that feels just right for the last night of 2025.

@Miss Tess Step into a masquerade carnival complete with dazzling costumes, an all-out Asian feast and roaming performances as you count down to midnight.

@Prime 68 Celebrate New Year’s Eve at Time Out Dubai’s Best Steakhouse 2025, complete with a five-course dinner, French bubbly and some of the best skyline views across Dubai. You can either choose a vista of Burj Al Arab and all of Jumeirah or Burj Khalifa and Downtown Dubai, before tucking into some impressive cuts of top-shelf steaks with all the fam. The whole thing feels suitably grand without trying too hard.

@Rang Mahal If you’re after a calmer and more refined New Year’s Eve plan, Rang Mahal is a solid choice. Chow down on a NYE spread of Indian dishes at the relaxed dinner before the city’s midnight buzz kicks in. We love an evening where you can actually hear yourself think.

@ROKA ROKA is going all out for New Year’s Eve with a night of modern Japanese dishes, live music and skyline views that make the countdown feel extra special. Early diners can choose from the à la carte and tasting menus, while the late seating brings premium sharing dishes from the deluxe sashimi platter and to juicy lamb cutlets.

@The Gallery For a NYE that feels as good as the view, head to The Gallery’s terrace at The Lana and take in the Burj Khalifa alongside a five-course menu.

@Tong Thai If you’re in the mood for a New Year’s Eve night out that’s a little more laid-back, tuck into a pad Thai or green curry at the chilled Business Bay spot. Expect all your favourite Thai flavours all the way up to midnight.

@Koko Bay Secure your spot at the West Beach hot spot for a totally wild bash on the beach. Belgian DJ and record producer Lost Frequencies will be taking to the decks and you can enjoy a select number of drinks and delicious Balinese bites while grooving into the New Year.

@LAO Celebrate New Year’s Eve with a curated Southeast Asian dinner packed with signature sharing dishes and desserts, each paired with its own speciality tea. Dhs650 (food only), Dhs850 (grape pairing).

@Maiden Shanghai Known for its all-out party brunch, the Chinese restaurant will be bringing the Naughty Noodles brunch up to its terrace for NYE. Expect free-flowing drinks, plenty of tasty Chinese plates and some energetic live entertainment. Make sure you keep an eye out for the roaming dragons, too.

@Ossiano Dive into a nine-course dinner at the ‘under the sea’ restaurant and watch the marine life as you tuck in. Expect live entertainment, lots of glamour and access to one of the three after-parties at Studio Frantzén, En Fuego, or Ling Ling.
