A Glamorous New Year’s Eve Gala at CÉ LA VI Dubai

About A Glamorous New Year’s Eve Gala at CÉ LA VI Dubai

CÉ LA VI Dubai is inviting guests to ring in the New Year 54 floors above the city, with A Glamorous New Year’s Eve Gala in its Club Lounge on Thursday 31 December 2026. The party runs from 8pm until 3am, which means you can enjoy a long evening of music and celebration well into the first hours of 2027.

Perched on Level 54 of Address Sky View in Downtown Dubai, CÉ LA VI is known for its panoramic outlook over the Burj Khalifa and the surrounding skyline. On New Year’s Eve, that position comes into its own, with the venue promising front-row views of the city’s fireworks. If you have ever wanted to watch Downtown’s celebrations from high above the crowds, we think this is one of the most glamorous ways to do it.

What to expect

The headline act for the night is Jack Pack, described by the venue as the UK’s celebrated swing band. Expect classic swing with a modern twist, bringing a touch of old-school glamour to the evening, with live entertainment starting from 8pm.

After the countdown and fireworks, the party continues with high-energy music past midnight, so you can keep dancing long after the year has turned. With the gala running until 3am, this is very much a full night out rather than just a dinner.

Rather than a fixed package, the evening works on a minimum spend of AED 5,000 per person, which is redeemable against the à la carte menu. That gives you the freedom to choose your own food and drinks across the night.

Who it is for

This gala is aimed squarely at those who want a luxurious, grown-up New Year’s Eve in the heart of Downtown Dubai. It will suit couples celebrating in style, groups of friends planning a big night out, and visitors who want to see the Burj Khalifa fireworks from an elevated vantage point.

Fans of swing, jazz-inflected pop and glamorous party nights will feel right at home, while the late finish suits anyone who wants the party to carry on well past the countdown.

How to book

Bookings are made through the Book Now button on the CÉ LA VI Dubai event page for the New Year’s Eve gala, which links to the venue’s online reservation system. For groups of 15 or more, the venue asks guests to contact events-dxb@celavi.com.

Tip: With a minimum spend per person, it is worth confirming your exact group size before booking, and checking with the venue how the minimum spend is applied to your table.

Good to know

The celebration takes place in the Club Lounge at CÉ LA VI, Level 54, Address Sky View, Downtown Dubai, from 8pm on 31 December 2026 until 3am on 1 January 2027. The official page does not state an age policy or dress code, so we recommend checking these with the venue when you reserve.

Tip: Downtown Dubai sees extensive road closures and very large crowds on New Year’s Eve, with closures often starting in the afternoon. Plan to arrive early, consider the Dubai Metro, and allow extra time for getting into Address Sky View.

Tip: Getting home after 3am in Downtown can take a while on New Year’s Day, so arranging a pick-up point a short walk from the busiest areas, or staying nearby, can make the end of the night much smoother.

Tip: Glamorous evening wear suits the occasion and the setting, even where no formal dress code is published.

If you are looking for a sophisticated, music-led celebration with one of the best views in the city, we think CÉ LA VI’s New Year’s Eve gala is a superb way to welcome 2027.
