As lights shimmer along the Dubai Water Canal, guests discover a lineup of premium dining experiences, lively holiday moments, and grand New Year’s Eve celebrations crafted for families, friends, and refined travelers.
The hotel elevates the season with upscale events that combine classic luxury and modern flair. Curated four-course menus, live musical performances, and elegant palace-inspired spaces create a sensory celebration. Festive afternoons at Sidra and Tea Garden, premium steak dinners at World Cut Steakhouse, and a grand New Year’s Eve soirée ensure guests enjoy refined dining and memorable moments throughout the season.
Hilton welcomes guests with a warm, family-friendly festive lineup that includes a generous Thanksgiving buffet, seasonal desserts, and a homestyle Turkey Roast designed for group gatherings.

New Year’s Eve transforms the hotel with live entertainment and international buffets crafted to fit diverse tastes.
Guests choose between two distinctive celebrations: a classic global buffet at The Market with live cooking and family-friendly entertainment, or an energetic 80s-inspired night at Ribs & Brews, complete with themed décor, upbeat music, and a social atmosphere perfect for friends. Indoor and outdoor seating options cater to every preference, while a refreshing Breakfast Recovery the next morning helps guests begin the year feeling recharged.
