Dubai’s First-Ever Christmas Market To Open On November 1



Al Habtoor City Dubai is set to introduce its Winter Garden to the public on November 1, 2023, marking Dubai’s first-ever Christmas market. The festive hotspot will be open until January 31, 2024, giving residents and tourists ample time to soak in the holiday spirit.


Nestled in front of the Habtoor Palace Dubai, the Winter Garden promises a merry experience for all attendees. Food enthusiasts can look forward to a myriad of delectable offerings from kiosks such as Sauce, Hot Chocolate, Gelato Divino, Casa Pons, and Mama Cita. Families can relish in live entertainment and activities tailored for children at the Extreme Excite zone.


Those interested in hands-on fun can head to LabLicious for crafting sessions. Here, visitors can indulge in soap, perfume, and candle making classes priced between Dhs35 and Dhs50. And for a memorable keepsake, guests can get a whimsical caricature of themselves.


As December approaches, the Winter Garden will undergo a festive transformation. Visitors can anticipate a grand Christmas tree, sparkling lights, festive buntings, and a myriad of decorations to set the yuletide ambiance. Musical highlights will include a choir serenading Christmas melodies and a live band performance. And for those eagerly awaiting Santa’s arrival, rest assured, he’s penciled in a visit to the Winter Garden.


For those eager to skip the queues, tickets can be purchased in advance via the Loyal by AHG app. Attendees are reminded to present the QR code at the entrance for a seamless entry.
