Dubai is the ultimate party destination and this holiday season, the city promises an electric atmosphere. There’s no better place you can pick to ring in the New Year. Whether you’re looking to party or a romantic night under twinkling lights, we’ve got you covered. We’re going to take you through our top recommendations of the most festive things you can do this Christmas and New Year’s in Dubai. So grab a hot chocolate and settle in.

Up first, we recommend visiting Dubai’s magnificent Madinat Jumeirah resort. During the holiday season, Madinat Jumeirah puts on an extravagant, snowy Christmas market that feels like a winter wonderland. The Christmas market is decked to the nines with festive decorations and brightly lit trees. You can wander around all the wonderful stalls to try some tasty snacks, shop for quirky gifts, and even throw the odd snowball at your friends and family!

What if you could celebrate Christmas in Turkey or Japan? Maybe Morocco, America, or even Russia? There’s only one place you can do this — Dubai’s Global Village! You can celebrate the unique Christmas traditions and cultures of over 50 countries at their pavilions here. You can meet Santa and his red-nosed reindeers, try local delicacies, watch musical performances and so much more.

If you’re looking to do something different this Christmas or New Year’s, away from the crowds, our only recommendation is to go for a dhow cruise. Picture this: you’re on a beautifully-lit boat gliding along the gentle waters, surrounded by delicious food and drinks and are serenaded by a live musician. Sounds delightful right? There’s no better way to enjoy an intimate, merry moment with friends and family than on a luxurious cruise in Dubai.

La Mer, Dubai’s bewitching waterfront boardwalk, is another great option to consider this holiday season. The beach-side markets have been decked in charming lights, Christmas-theme decor, and the lovely sound of carols in the air. Carnival rides have been set up and you’ll be torn between all the food options around. What’s the cherry on top? It’s the perfect viewing spot for this year’s record-breaking New Year’s fireworks.

One of most-awaited global events this year was undoubtedly the mega Dubai Expo. Not only is it bigger, brighter and better than the previous ones, the Dubai Expo promises a Christmas extravaganza. Dubai Expo is now offering a festive Christmas pass for just AED 95! Meet Santa Claus and his 3D camels (yes, you heard that right!), attend over 100 live concerts, go for Christmas movie screenings like Home Alone, indulge in mouth-watering desserts, and shop till you drop.

There’s nothing like celebrating the holiday season with some gala dance and musical performances at the Dubai Opera. This holiday season, you’re going to be spoilt for chance. On Christmas, you can watch the enchanting Russian ballet, The Nutcracker, or lose yourself in Tchaikovsky’s melodies, and dance the night away as you ring in the New Year with some of the world’s best DJs.

No New Year’s celebration is complete in Dubai without watching its spectacular fireworks display. Both tourists and locals gather around Downtown Dubai to watch the Burj Khalifa fireworks — and they are simply out of the world. Watch the fireworks from Umm Suqeim Park, Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard and Jumeira beach. You can also watch it from the Dubai Fountain, which on its own has an absolutely magical dancing fountain performance on New Year’s.
