With Ramadan only two weeks away, Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) will once again open its doors to its grand Majlis where guests will be able to experience its much-loved iftar and suhoor during the Holy Month.
Launching on Friday 15 March, and running through until Eid, one of the city’s much-loved Ramadan destinations, The Majlis at DWTC has long been an annual gathering place for families, friends, and colleagues to break their fast and create memorable moments, for two decades. This year, guests can look forward to an eclectic selection of cuisine including traditional Ramadan dishes, exquisite à la carte menus, and international favourites – all prepared by DWTC’s team of award-winning chefs.
“Ramadan is not just a time of spiritual introspection, but a season that fosters unity and cherished connections. The Majlis serves as a beacon of togetherness, drawing guests of all cultures, families, friends, and colleagues into its warm embrace year after year. With its unique atmosphere and diverse cuisine, it stands as a testament to our commitment to creating unforgettable moments for all. As we eagerly anticipate the arrival of this blessed month, we extend a heartfelt welcome to all to join us in celebrating the beauty of Ramadan at our beloved venue,” said Mahir Abdulkarim Julfar, EVP, Venue Services Management, DWTC.
Dubai World Trade Centre remains committed to giving back to those in need. Each year, The Majlis at DWTC collaborates with Tarahum Charity Foundation and UAE Food Bank to distribute more than 6,000 meals to communities in need across the city, and in the spirit of the Year of Sustainability, also supports the UAE Government’s mission of eliminating food waste.
