Prepare your cooler, because one of Dubai’s most beloved winter events, The Grand Picnic, will soon reopen its doors at Safa Park. This event is the perfect weekend program for families and friends, centered around sunshine, delicious food, and community experiences.

More Than Just a Picnic

The event offers a special experience not only for nature lovers but also for car enthusiasts. Visitors can admire the most unique cars and motorcycles from the GCC region, exhibited across the 150-hectare park area. If this has piqued your interest, mark your calendar: The Grand Picnic will take place on Sunday, February 2, 2025, at Safa Park.

Entry to the event is free, but there is a 5 dirham admission fee to enter the park. You can fill your picnic basket with your favorite foods – from sandwiches to flavored snacks – or even grill in designated park areas. If you don’t feel like bringing your own food, there’s no need to worry because numerous local pop-up restaurants will be available to visitors.

Local Flavors and Emirati Brands

The uniqueness of this year’s event is that only Emirati brands will be presented. This is a great opportunity to discover and support local gastronomic specialties. At the picnic, you can taste offerings from popular local restaurants such as LENTO, Pie Planet, LIT Pizzeria, Knot Bakehouse, Dubai Food Babes, GOAT Burger, KUHP Ice Cream, Honestry, and Flat12 Café.

Vintage Style and Friendly Atmosphere

The event organizers do not impose strict dress codes, but it is recommended that if you truly want to fit into the mood, wear vintage-style clothes. This further enhances the nostalgic, friendly atmosphere that The Grand Picnic offers.

Winter Leisure in the Heart of Dubai

The historical location of Safa Park and the programs of The Grand Picnic make the day memorable. Whether you visit with your family or friends, this event provides the perfect opportunity to enjoy Dubai's winter sunshine, taste delicious foods, and make new friends. Don’t forget to arrive on time and bring your picnic blanket and good mood!
