    What is Eid Al-Adha?
    Eid Al Adha, also known as the “Festival of Sacrifice,” is a major holiday celebrated by Muslims around the world. It marks the end of Hajj, an annual pilgrimage to Mecca, and commemorates Prophet Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God. The holiday is celebrated by sharing meals with family and friends, exchanging gifts,and attending prayers.
    When is Eid Al-Adha?
    Eid Al Adha holds particular significance in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) due to the country’s large Muslim population. The UAE will observe  a four-day Eid holiday this year (15 to 18 June), with government offices and many businesses closed. This extended break allows residents and visitors to celebrate with loved ones and enjoy festive activities.
    If you’re spending Eid Al-Adha in Dubai, this guide is the perfect companion to plan your culinary adventures. From luxurious brunches to authentic cultural experiences, there’s something for every taste and preference.
    Here’s what this Eid Al-Adha lunch and brunch guide has to offer:
    Eid Al-Adha is a joyous celebration in Dubai, and what better way to commemorate it than with a delicious meal with loved ones? This guide explores various restaurants offering special Eid menus and brunches, catering to a range of preferences.

    Whether you crave a sophisticated brunch experience, a taste of global flavors, or a delightful exploration of Persian cuisine, this guide offers a diverse selection of restaurants to make your Eid Al-Adha in Dubai truly memorable.
    Significance of Arafah Day and Eid Al Adha
    Arafah Day, which is the pinnacle of the Hajj pilgrimage, will be observed on Saturday, June 15. This day is revered as the holiest in Islam, where pilgrims gather on the plains of Arafat to perform prayers and seek forgiveness. For Muslims not on pilgrimage, it is a day of fasting and reflection.
    Following Arafah Day, Eid Al Adha, also known as the “Festival of Sacrifice,” will be celebrated on Sunday, June 16. This festival commemorates the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim to sacrifice his son in obedience to God. The act of Qurbani (sacrifice) is performed, where livestock is slaughtered, and the meat is distributed among family, friends, and the needy.
    Celebrations and Traditions
    Eid Al-Adha in the UAE is marked by a series of traditions and communal activities. The holiday begins with a special prayer service held at mosques and open spaces across the country. Following the prayers, the ritual of animal sacrifice is performed, reflecting the story of Prophet Ibrahim. The meat from the sacrifice is then distributed, ensuring that everyone, including the less fortunate, can partake in the celebrations.
    Additionally, the UAE sees various cultural and recreational events during Eid. Malls, parks, and public spaces host activities and entertainment for families, enhancing the festive spirit. Traditional Emirati dishes are prepared, and the exchange of gifts among family and friends is common.
