The Majlis 2026: A Ramadan Experience at Dubai WTC

From 19 February to 20 March 2026, Ramadan takes centre stage at The Majlis 2026 inside Za’abeel Halls 5–6 at the Dubai World Trade Centre. But this isn’t just another dining spot. The Majlis is all about gathering, honouring old traditions while bringing a fresh, modern touch to hospitality.

Think of a majlis: it’s where people meet, talk, and share stories. That spirit runs through every evening. As the sun goes down, families, friends, and colleagues show up to break their fast together. The atmosphere? It’s elegant, but it never feels stiff. There’s warmth in the air. Later at night, the doors stay open for Suhoor. People linger, relax, and keep the conversations going in a calm, welcoming space.

You can feel the care in every detail. The lighting’s soft, the décor’s tasteful, and there’s plenty of room to stretch out, whether you’re part of a big group or just a couple of friends. The place manages to feel both grand and cozy, which isn’t easy to pull off.

Now for the food. That’s the heart of The Majlis. The menu stretches from classic Ramadan favourites to dishes with a global twist, and everything’s cooked with real attention to quality and presentation. There are live cooking stations and buffet spreads that invite you to wander, try something new, and maybe even strike up a conversation while you wait.

But the Majlis is more than great food and beautiful décor. It’s Dubai’s way of celebrating culture, holding onto heritage while always looking ahead. The doors are open to everyone, no matter where you’re from. It’s a chance to connect, share stories, and experience Ramadan’s true meaning: unity, generosity, and reflection.

In 2026, the Majlis isn’t just an event. It’s a symbol of tradition meeting today’s Dubai, of people coming together over shared meals, and of the timeless values that make Ramadan special.
