If you consider yourself a bit of a foodie, or just like a great day out for the whole family, mark Friday 14th, Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th February in your calendar and head to Dubai’s Media City Amphitheatre for three days of great food and entertainment at Taste of Dubai Festival. From 12pm – midnight on Friday and Saturday and 12pm – 11pm on Sunday, you can experience the best cuisines that the city has to offer, showcasing 16 of Dubai’s most acclaimed restaurants.

Each restaurant will have a menu of 3-5 ‘taster’ size dishes, so you can try a little bit of everything and each restaurant will feature a ‘child-friendly’ dish, designed for younger palates.

There will be culinary workshops hosted by celebrity chefs, where you can learn the best kitchen secrets, techniques, and insights directly from the experts. Kids can keep busy with special “Little Chefs” workshops with celebrity kid’s cookbook author Annabel Karmel.

It wouldn’t be a festival without music! Stages throughout the venue will be busy from day to night, each packed with everything from DJs to intimate acoustic sets.
If you need to walk off all that food, take a stroll through the market of artisan vendors and established brands where you can sample their products, and take part in interactive games and activations.

Book your tickets online before the event here, as prices increase on the door, and ticket packages are limited. Tickets start at just AED 75 and kids under 12 are free! For full Taste of Dubai Festival event details, click here.
