DUBAI, 18th May, 2026 (WAM) — Dubai is set to welcome Eid Al Adha with a citywide programme of festivities, staycation offers, and family experiences running from 22 to 31 May. As part of the Season of Wulfa, and in alignment with the Year of Family, the city will bring together residents, families and friends through a series of cultural, entertainment and community experiences.
Organised by the Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment, part of the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism, a range of limited-time staycation offers and value-driven packages will be specially curated for Eid Al Adha, with experiences showcased across the city and offering residents and visitors many ways to gather and celebrate. From beachfront resorts and luxury hotels to family-friendly stays and iconic hospitality destinations, the city will offer a diversity of Eid getaway options.
From iconic beachfront resorts to value-driven family escapes, Dubai’s coastline offers some of the most sought-after staycation experiences this Eid. Families can have double the fun with a complimentary second night at NH Collection Dubai, The Palm, starting at AED350, or a family retreat at Sofitel Dubai Jumeirah Beach, where kids under 12 stay free in spacious rooms with private balconies overlooking the sea.
Meanwhile, the luxury Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach offers 30% off room rates, free breakfast, and flexible check-in and check-out, while Address Beach Resort is perfect for those looking for an adults-only staycation, providing up to 35% savings and a floating breakfast at ZETA Seventy Seven, the world’s tallest infinity pool.
