Champagne and bottle service will be available throughout the night, while those seeking to elevate their celebration further are encouraged to take advantage of exclusive preferential rates offered on beverage pre-orders.
The Atmosphere
Set against the backdrop of Dubai’s glittering skyline, guests can choose to dine in restaurant’s elegant dining room featuring Art Deco interiors inspired by 1930s Shanghai, or its newly opened terrace overlooking the glittering waters of Marasi Bay Marina. Both the terrace and indoor restaurant area offer unparalleled views of the Burj Khalifa’s yearly fireworks display, creating a truly mesmerising setting to enjoy China Tang’s exquisite menu and welcome the New Year.
For more private celebrations, China Tang’s two exclusive private dining rooms are available for the evening, with the larger dining room accommodating up to 16 guests, and the smaller room accommodating up to 12 guests. Designed with comfort, intimacy, and attentive service in mind,the private dining rooms offer a fully customisable experience for a truly memorable New Year’s Eve celebration, perfect for groups looking for a more personal setting.
The evening’s ambience will be elevated by resident performer DJ Simo Sax, who will set the tone from the terrace with a dynamic fusion of live saxophone performances and DJ sets late into the night. Following the midnight countdown, the celebration continues upstairs in the lounge, which will transform into a lively after party with an energetic atmosphere that carries the party deep into the early hours.
