If you’re the kind of person who plans their weekends around food—welcome home. The Market Island at Dubai Festival City Mall is throwing a five-week flavor fiesta starting May 1st, and let’s just say, stretchy pants are not just recommended… they’re practically required.
A Food Wonderland (Yes, It’s That Big)
We’re talking 70,000 square feet of culinary chaos—in the best way possible. Nestled at the north end of the mall, this gastronomic paradise is home to over 40 food vendors and enough seating for 3,500 hungry souls. It’s like a food court, but make it fancy. And massive. Think global gourmet eats, local legends, fusion faves, and things you didn’t know could taste that good until you took a bite and saw the light.

The Dining Passport – Your Golden Ticket to Glory
You know what’s better than eating your way through Market Island? Getting rewarded while you do it. Enter: The Dining Passport. Each meal = one stamp closer to big-time prizes like an iPhone 16, AED 10,000 in cash, shopping vouchers, a luxury car experience (yes, really), and even annual dining passes. All you need is five stamps. Just five! That’s like… breakfast, lunch, dinner, and two dessert breaks. Easy.
AED 15 Deals. Yes, You Read That Right.
Got 15 dirhams? Great. You’ve got access to curated dishes and sippable goodness from top-notch vendors. It’s basically gourmet street food prices—no complicated math, just happy munching.
Flavour Highlights That’ll Wreck Your Diet Plans (Again)
Ready to feast? Dig into award-winning pizza from Naughty Pizza, melt-in-your-mouth brisket by Chef Eyad, and bold Asian bites from Kelinka, Bo, and Key Town. Fancy a coffee with that? Swing by BORN for a cup that’ll make you feel like the main character. And if your sweet tooth is calling, trust us—it won’t leave disappointed.

But Wait—There’s More Than Just Food
The Market Island isn’t just about what’s on your plate. It’s got live music, DJ beats, weekend markets, and an atmosphere that’s equal parts chill and chic. We’re talking woodsy warmth meets marble glam—basically, an Instagram backdrop you’ll want to live in.
