Luxury New Year’s Eve in Dubai: what the top tables cost

At the top end, New Year’s Eve in Dubai costs thousands per person. Last New Year’s Eve (31 December 2025) The Cullinan at Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab set an AED 8,000 minimum spend per person, and Ristorante L’Olivo at Al Mahara in the Burj Al Arab started at AED 7,000 with house beverages.

This season Atlantis, The Palm has announced its gala: AED 8,500 to AED 14,500 per person aged 14 and above, and VIP Sky Suites from AED 250,000. The other prices published so far for this season are in our New Year’s Eve dinner price list.

One venue listed with us is filed here because its price starts at AED 900 or more: OCCO Business Bay, from AED 990 per person. It is a promoted listing, a restaurant and lounge with a bar, and it has no fireworks view. For comparison, the typical New Year’s Eve offer started at AED 1,195 last season.

Sources: our cost guide, counted from the offers Time Out Dubai listed for 31 December 2025, and Gulf News for the Atlantis gala.

46 of the 211 priced offers we counted started at AED 2,000 or more. That is about one in five.

The Burj Al Arab is closed for restoration this season, Gulf News reports, so its restaurants are not an option for 31 December 2026.

This season: the Atlantis gala

Atlantis, The Palm’s own page shows three seats for 31 December 2026: Premium Seating at AED 8,500, Rouge Circle at AED 10,500 and Golden Circle at AED 14,500, per person aged 14 and above. Katy Perry headlines.

Golden Circle is in front of the stage and adds premium Champagne, caviar and unlimited white truffle service. The two VIP Sky Suites are AED 250,000 and AED 400,000 on Atlantis’s page. Gulf News reports those as starting prices for up to 10 guests.

Dinner inside Atlantis, The Palm without the gala starts at AED 1,350 per adult. The highest minimum spends there are AED 4,000 at FZN by Björn Frantzén and AED 2,450 at Ossiano. Atlantis does not say which restaurants can see the fireworks.

The detail is on our Atlantis page.

What a high price should buy

A view is the usual reason. Last season, offers that mentioned a fireworks or landmark view started at a median AED 1,475, against AED 1,000 for the rest. That is about 48% more.

Half the venues had more than one price, and their top option cost a median 1.6 times the cheapest. Ask what the dearer seat adds: the table, the view or the drinks.

Then get it in writing: which table, what you see from it, which drinks are included and the total. Is the view from your own seat, or from a terrace you walk to at midnight?

Good to know

What is the most expensive New Year’s Eve dinner in Dubai?
Among the 211 priced offers we counted for 31 December 2025, the highest starting price was the AED 8,000 minimum spend per person at The Cullinan, Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab. For 31 December 2026 Atlantis, The Palm lists gala seats up to AED 14,500 per adult and VIP Sky Suites from AED 250,000.
Does a luxury price guarantee a fireworks view?
No. The view depends on the venue and the seat. Emaar itself said not every Downtown restaurant has a direct view of the Burj Khalifa show, and Atlantis does not say which of its restaurants can see its fireworks. Ask what you see from your own table.
Which venue listed here starts above AED 900?
OCCO Business Bay at Hyde Dubai, from AED 990 per person. It is a restaurant and lounge with a bar, and it has no fireworks view.
