NUMÂ New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner, FIVE Palm Jumeirah

About the NUMÂ New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner

Not every New Year’s Eve at FIVE Palm Jumeirah has to be a late-night party. The NUMÂ New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner offers a more relaxed, family-friendly way to step into 2027, with a lavish international buffet, drinks included and fireworks at midnight. It takes place on Thursday 31 December 2026 from 8pm.

NUMÂ is one of the restaurants at FIVE Palm Jumeirah, and for New Year’s Eve it is offering a bottomless brunch-style format: a generous buffet paired with house beverages, with a choice of indoor or outdoor seating. The hotel has also published a children’s price, which makes it one of the easier FIVE events to bring the family along to.

What to expect

The centrepiece is a lavish international buffet with live stations, seasonal dishes and desserts. Both the indoor and outdoor seating options include a bottomless brunch with house beverages, so once you have chosen your table the evening is largely taken care of.

As midnight arrives, the hotel promises fireworks, giving everyone a festive moment to mark the start of 2027. The outdoor seating option costs a little more, and is the natural choice if you want to enjoy the fresh air and the fireworks from your table.

Here is what the hotel lists:

• Lavish international buffet with live stations
• Seasonal dishes and desserts
• Bottomless brunch with house beverages
• Indoor or outdoor seating
• Midnight fireworks

Because the drinks are built into the price, the cost of the evening is easy to predict, which is a real advantage on a night when bar bills elsewhere can quickly mount up. You simply choose indoor or outdoor seating, add the children’s tickets you need, and the rest of the evening is taken care of.

Who it is for

NUMÂ’s gala is a sensible pick for families, mixed-age groups and anyone who wants a generous dinner and a good view of the fireworks without committing to a late-night club scene. With a set price for children aged five to 12, parents can plan the cost of the night clearly.

It will also suit couples and friends who want to stay at FIVE for the night but prefer a buffet dinner to a beach party. The hotel has not published a price for children under five or for teenagers over 12, so ask the team if that applies to your group.

Tip: If the fireworks are the highlight for your children, the outdoor seating is worth the extra AED 300 per adult, as it puts you in the open for the midnight moment.

Tip: FIVE Palm Jumeirah hosts several New Year’s Eve events across its venues, so the hotel will be busy. Arrive early, especially if you are bringing children, and plan your transport home in advance.

Tip: Families with younger children may want to confirm whether high chairs or a quieter table can be arranged, since the hotel’s festive page does not cover this.

With a generous buffet, drinks included and fireworks to finish, the NUMÂ gala is a warm and uncomplicated way to celebrate New Year’s Eve on Palm Jumeirah. If you want a night that the whole family can enjoy together, we think it is one of FIVE’s best bets.
