Taste of Abu Dhabi is returning this November

Calling all food lovers, Taste of Abu Dhabi is returning this November for another weekend packed with great food, live entertainment and plenty to explore.

The capital’s favourite food festival will take place from 13 to 15 November 2026 at Gateway Park North, Yas Island, bringing together some of Abu Dhabi’s top restaurants, celebrity chefs and a line-up of foodie experiences across three days.

Now in its fourth year, the festival is set to be bigger than ever, with more than 19,000 people expected to join the celebrations. While the full list of restaurants and chefs is still to be announced, there’s already plenty to look forward to.

You can dig into signature dishes from 16 Abu Dhabi restaurants, join cooking workshops with celebrity chefs, learn how to make fresh pasta, try your hand at coffee masterclasses and pick up gourmet treats from artisan stalls.

Bringing the little ones along? The Kids Zone will have plenty of activities to keep them entertained, while live music and performances will set the mood throughout the weekend. If you’re after a more elevated festival experience, the upgraded VIP Lounge will offer a comfortable space to take a break between exploring the food and entertainment. 

Stay tuned with us as more details on the participating restaurants, chefs and festival experiences are announced soon.
