Experience Magic at Carols by Candlelight at Expo City Dubai

The festive season in Dubai is always filled with light, music and family moments, and one of the most anticipated seasonal events is Carols by Candlelight at Expo City Dubai. Hosted inside the stunning Al Wasl Plaza, this celebration brings holiday music, candlelit ambience and warm community spirit together in one unforgettable evening. It is a perfect gathering for families, couples and visitors who want to enjoy Christmas themed entertainment in one of the most iconic spaces in the city.

Carols by Candlelight takes place from 20 to 24 December, with multiple shows each evening. Guests can look forward to choir performances, live vocalists and instrumental pieces that bring classic carols and festive songs to life. The atmosphere under the illuminated dome feels intimate and magical, with soft candlelight creating a sense of warmth and connection as voices rise through the plaza.

The experience goes beyond the music. During December, Expo City Dubai hosts Winter City, a seasonal attraction filled with festive décor, a large Christmas tree, themed photo spots, artisan markets and family friendly activities. Many visitors choose to come early so they can explore Winter City before attending the carol performance. It is a chance to enjoy holiday treats, pick up unique gifts and take memorable photos with the sparkling lights in the background.

Tickets for Carols by Candlelight are set at AED 150. Because this event is popular every year, it is recommended to book in advance to secure preferred seating times. Arriving early also helps guests make the most of the full festive atmosphere that surrounds Al Wasl Plaza during December.

Carols by Candlelight stands out as one of Dubai’s most heartwarming seasonal events. It combines music, candlelight and a sense of togetherness that appeals to people of all ages. The location itself adds to the experience, since the Al Wasl dome creates an impressive visual and acoustic setting that enhances every song.

Whether you are planning a family outing, a romantic evening or a night out with friends, Carols by Candlelight offers a memorable way to celebrate the season. With beautiful performances, festive surroundings and a welcoming holiday atmosphere, it is a must visit event for anyone spending December in Dubai.
