December 24 & 25, 6.30pm to 11.30pm, Dhs650, Dhs950 with wine pairing

An Unforgettable New Year’s Eve

Draw the season to a close in style with a six-course spirit of luxury-inspired menu created exclusively by the man himself, three-Michelin starred chef Heinz Beck. Luxury here means the very finest ingredients, from foie gras to truffle, and the dishes are sure to impress even the most discerning foodie – think brûlée with foie gras and seabass with melon, before a surprise dessert. Throughout dinner, guests will be able to take in the restaurant’s skyline views to the tinkling sounds of a live pianist, before everyone will be invited to join in the fun at the Palm Jumeirah’s iconic fireworks display. Not done dancing? There’s the option to include after-party access in your booking should you wish to end your night at the Great Circus Gala Dinner…
