Festival of Cake & The Cake Picnic Dubai

Dubai is set for its sweetest celebration as the region’s first-ever Festival of Cake arrives at Expo City Dubai! This winter, from 28 November to 2 December, the city transforms into a dreamy world of desserts, creativity, and culinary magic — a five-day extravaganza featuring world-class chefs, immersive stages, competitions, and endless treats.

Visitors can explore the Cakes & Bakes Market, boasting thousands of desserts from beloved brands such as Chocomelt, Brookie Bakehouse, Magnolia Bakery, Dara’s Ice Cream, Pavlova Café, Bake My Day, Miss Matcha, and many more. Over 25 international pastry masters, including Rich Myers (Get Baked), Brooke Bellamy (Brookie Bakehouse), Markus Bohr (Harrods), Nouel Catis, and Sahar Parham Al Awadhi, will lead demos, talks, and culinary experiences across three vibrant stages — Sweet Creations, Brew Stage, and Sprinkles Stage. 🎉

Aspiring bakers can sign up for the thrilling Bake-Off Competition, with categories for professionals, amateurs, and juniors. From cake battles to “Real or Cake?” challenges by Sugaholics, kids’ workshops, live music, celebrity meet-and-greets, and dessert-inspired activities — this festival promises a feast for all senses. 🌈✨

And on 2 December, Dubai welcomes the Middle East debut of The Cake Picnic, the global sensation where the sweetest rule applies: No Cake. No Entry. Guests bring their own cakes and join a community feast — a once-in-a-lifetime celebration of creativity, connection, and cake. 🎂💛
