Toast to 2026 with Dubai’s Longest New Year’s Eve Celebration at Rixos The Palm Dubai Hotel & Suites
Recently transformed into a glittering winter wonderland for the season, Rixos The Palm Dubai Hotel & Suites sets a striking stage for an unforgettable celebration. To complement its icy new look, guests attending this year’s elegant New Year’s Eve Gala are encouraged to wear their finest white attire as they step into a night filled with flavour and festive flair. As Dubai’s longest New Year’s Eve party, the evening features a curated buffet, family-friendly fun, mesmerising spectacles, and an impressive lineup of entertainment that will keep everyone dancing well into the early hours.
Surrounded by frosty glamour, delicate snowflakes, and twinkling lights, the evening begins with a welcome glass of bubbly before guests explore a lavish buffet brimming with live cooking stations, international favourites, and festive creations. As the night builds toward the countdown, guests can expect talented live bands, mesmerising dancers, and electrifying DJ sets that fill the air with celebration.
While adults raise a toast to the occasion, little ones can enjoy a fun-filled lineup of activities at Rixy Kids Club. Young guests can tuck into their own dedicated buffet before heading off to musical games, a magical snow fight zone, face painting, and a lively kids’ disco. Later, they can settle down with a spellbinding magic show, colourful cartoon character appearances, and cosy film time at Rixy Cinema.
As midnight approaches, the entire family gathers beneath the open sky for a spectacular countdown framed by fireworks lighting up Palm Jumeirah. The festivities continue long after the clock strikes twelve with roaming performers and high-energy DJ sets. Additionally, guests who want to dance even longer can make their way to Bar1 for a lively after-party.
Priced at AED 3,000 per adult and AED 1,500 per child, this extraordinary celebration is designed to mark the start of a new year surrounded by those who matter most. To make the evening seamless, groups of four or more booking the gala dinner can enjoy a complimentary drop-off service to anywhere in Dubai.
