The culinary scene in the region is anticipating one of the biggest food events in the Arab World, taking place in less than a month! The iconic Dubai Food Festival is coming back with its sixth edition from the 21st of February until the 9th of March. The festival is expected to have a city-wide showcase of Dubai’s gastronomic offerings to thousands of residents and visitors.
There are over 200 nationalities in Dubai; thus, the festival aims to celebrate and enhance Dubai’s position as the food capital not only in the region but also in the international gastronomy scene! This is by promoting the diversity and creativity of the city’s culinary offerings, drawn from the UAE and the different cultures integrated within.
The epic 17-day festival is organized by the Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment (DFRE). The event is expected to be packed with exciting new activations, appearances by celebrity chefs, food-related activities, and promotions. You can also expect signature events like Dubai Restaurant Week, Beach Canteen, and Hidden Gems. Here are some of the most bedazzling dishes from last year’s DFF!
