A Journey Through Music and Flavors

Guests will begin their journey at the SLS Terminal at EllaMia on the ground floor, where DJ will be spinning the tracks, setting the tone for the adventure ahead. While sipping pre-flight beverages, they will prepare to board their global voyage. As passengers ascend to the 71st floor and enter the Sky Lobby, they will find themselves transported to the icy landscapes of Antarctica. Upon arrival, they’ll break the ice in an ethereal atmosphere illuminated by a serene, polar glow, and witness a fascinating live cutting show of a 120kg bluefin tuna. The enchanting sounds of a violinist will fill the air as guests enjoy iced drinks served by the elegant “Frozen Queen,” all while DJ Rodge ignites the crowd with his dynamic beats

Next, visitors can descend to Europe, specifically, the sun-kissed shores of southern Italy at Fi’lia on level 70. Here, the charm of the Italian Riviera is set to come alive as guests delight in an Amalfi Spritz welcome drink and indulge in a culinary showcase that spans three generations. Watch as Nonna, Mamma, and Fi’lia herself prepare and serve traditional Italian favourites such as bruschetta, fresh pastas, and the infamous Filiamisu, while live singers serenade guests with Italian classics.

An Exotic Fusion of South America and Arabian Nights

As the crowd reaches cruising altitude on level 74, guests will find themselves at the next stop in the heart of South America. Smoke & Mirrors, SLS Dubai’s mysterious speakeasy and cigar lounge, will capture the vibrant spirit of the continent, where the rhythms of salsa will echo and freshly rolled cigars will add a touch of sophistication. Guests can dance the night away with live performances, a DJ, and a drummer, as they indulge in a selection of elevated bites and sip exquisite drinks from the venue’s signature beverage menu.

On level 74, guests are also invited to embark on an Arabian Night adventure that promises to delight. Guests will be greeted by the mesmerising rhythms of belly dancers and a live DJ - setting the perfect tone for the evening. A henna master will be on hand to add an artistic touch, while guests savour Arabic delicacies that showcase the rich flavours of the region. The highlight of the evening will be a surprise live performance by a famed Lebanese superstar, whose music is sure to captivate the hearts of all in attendance.
