The three-day food festival brings together chefs, restaurants and masterclasses.
On your marks, get set, eat! Taste Festivals has announced that Taste of Dubai is back and taking place at Media City Amphitheater from 14 to 16 February 2025. The culinary extravaganza will include chefs, restaurants, masterclasses, live music and entertainment.
The gastronomic festival takes place annually and is expected to attract up to 25,000 people. Make a day out of it and bring along your friends and families, as you’ll have a chance to indulge in one-off food experiences.
Taste of Dubai brings together 16 of the best restaurants in the region, plus established as well as emerging chefs. Eat your way around the festival, as each restaurant will offer three to five sample-sized dishes, including at least one vegetarian option and one child-friendly dish. Plus, there’s the Taste VIP Lounge for exclusive experiences and Kids Village for the little ones.
Participating restaurants include Chef Akmal Anuar’s Goldfish Sushi & Yakitori, Harummanis and Osteria Funkcoolio. The FACT award-winning Leña Dubai and Miss Lily’s will also be present. Plus, City Social, Indya by Vineet, Maya by Chef Richard Sandoval, Moti Mahal and Rhodes W1.
Visitors are invited to cook up a storm, as there are interactive experiences aplenty. Masterclasses at past editions have covered pasta, coffee, mixology and the first barbeque school, and workshops cover food styling and photography.
If you want to recreate the spirit of the festival, there are artisan and local producers selling food, drink and lifestyle items. Plus, there’ll be live entertainment, from chilled-out acoustic shows to lively DJ sets.
It wouldn’t be Taste of Dubai without celebrity chefs, and this year’s lineup features Annabel Karmel, Dani García, Eric Lanlard, José Pizarro, Marco Pierre White and friends of FACT, Akmal Anuar and Hattem Mattar.
