Amazónico Dubai Turns Five: Get Ready for a Carnival Like No Other!

Celebrate Amazónico Dubai’s 5th anniversary with a carnival of vibrant performances, exclusive dishes, and world-class cocktails!

Hold onto your hats (and your forks), because Amazónico Dubai is celebrating its fifth birthday in true jungle style! That’s right, one of the city’s hottest dining destinations is turning five, and it’s throwing a carnival celebration that’s bound to make you dance, eat, and drink like never before. From February 4th to 8th, this vibrant, jungle-inspired oasis in DIFC is turning up the heat with five days of non-stop fun, food, and fabulous performances. Trust us, you’re not going to want to miss it!

The Ultimate Carnival Lineup

Amazónico Dubai isn’t just celebrating a milestone; they’re throwing a spectacular bash! Prepare for show-stopping performances that’ll make you want to put on your dancing shoes. Get ready for samba dancers shaking it in the most colorful costumes, and electric live performances by global artists like Davi Sax and Yassin Lahkime Cepeda. But wait, there’s more – the dynamic beats from Amazónico’s resident DJs and percussionists will keep the energy as high as the Amazon trees. Each day brings a new surprise, ensuring that the party never stops!

Feast Like You’re in the Amazon

What’s a celebration without incredible food, right? Chef Diego Sánchez Vargas has created a Carnival Menu that’s as daring as it is delicious, packed with flavors that will transport you straight to the heart of the Amazon. And guess what? This menu is only available during the five-day celebration. That’s right—exclusive dishes you won’t get anywhere else!

Start your culinary adventure with the Muchame de Hamachi, a zingy dish that combines cured hamachi, soy sauce, ikura, and shiso—your taste buds won’t know what hit them. Then dive into the Cachapas, corn crepes stuffed with foie gras and green apple (yes, you heard that right). The Ayampaco a la Braz, a grilled corvina with criolla sauce and cassava stew, is next, followed by the melt-in-your-mouth Paletilla de Cordero. And just when you think it can’t get any better, end on a sweet note with the iconic Piña 2025 dessert. It’s everything you love about Amazónico—and more!

World-Class Mixology: Cheers to Five Years!

Amazónico is not just about food; it’s about raising the bar literally—and they’re doing it in style with some of the best mixologists in the world. Enter Hanky Panky, the world-renowned cocktail bar from Mexico that’s shaking up the scene with creative concoctions. These cocktail geniuses will be behind the bar, crafting drinks that are as inventive as they are delicious.

And on February 7th, prepare to have your mind blown by Simone Caporale, one of the best cocktail curators in the business. If you’ve ever had a drink at Artesian or Sips Barcelona, you know this guy’s a legend. He’ll be creating an exclusive cocktail menu for one night only at Paraíso by Amazónico Rooftop Club, so get ready to sip on some next-level drinks.

Aging Like Fine Wine

Now, if you’re a wine lover (and who isn’t?), you’ll want to get in on the action. Amazónico boasts a wine collection that’s nothing short of legendary, with over 930 labels curated by expert sommeliers. For their anniversary, they’re partnering with Bodegas Vega Sicilia, a Spanish winery that’s been making some of the world’s most prestigious wines since 1864. On February 4th, they’ll host an exclusive wine-pairing dinner with a six-course menu that’ll have you savoring every drop. Seats for this intimate affair are limited to just 10 lucky guests, so if you want in, you better act fast—prices start at AED 2,800 per seat.
