Burj Al Arab Jumeirah isn’t just an iconic feature in Dubai’s landscape, it’s a true example of luxurious living. Founded in 1999, the stunning hotel never ceases to amaze, and is constantly at the brink of a new experience, and an elevated way of living. And this year, the property is ushering in 2024 in the most novel of ways, drenching itself in gold to reflect the shining new year that approaches us.
Taking inspiration from the number 2024, each of Burj Al Arab’s end-of-year offers incorporate the number 24 in them. Add to that the grandeur of the hotel, and you can expect service that goes beyond your wildest dreams. Vogue Arabia takes you through everything guests can expect over the coming weeks.

The first thing that comes to mind when one thinks of festivities? Food! To commemorate the coming year, Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is inviting guests to Sahn Eddar for a festive afternoon tea surrounded by glittering holiday decor. On the menu? A selection of artisanal teas and festive treats. The highlight of the experience, of course, is the hotel’s one-of-a-kind 24-carat gold leaf pastry — a nod to the number of the moment, 24 — which has been created especially for the occasion by chef Tom Coll. The pastry will come accompanied by Burj Al Arab Jumeirah’s much-talked-about Gold Cappuccino.
Available daily, 3pm – 6pm. From AED 120
