Abu Dhabi is rolling out a curated weekend program from 3 to 5 July 2026, designed to appeal to both residents and international visitors. The lineup spans morning mimosas, a Fourth of July brunch, football-themed dining, and a new cocktail menu, alongside a family-friendly club membership offer.
Morning Mimosas and Brunch Highlights
Roots Bar & Kitchen is introducing a daily morning mimosa service from 9am to 11am, priced at AED 49 (approx. $13). The venue aims to attract early risers and those seeking a relaxed start to their day.
Meanwhile, The Terrace on the Corniche will present the final Astor's Brunch of the season on 4 July, marking American Independence Day with a lavish spread and live music. Pricing ranges from AED 345 ($94) to AED 680 ($186), with a 20% discount for reservations made via MoreCravings. This event underscores the emirate's growing appeal for themed dining experiences that blend local hospitality with international celebrations.
Football, Cocktails, and Family Offers
For football enthusiasts, Pizza Di Rocco is offering match-day bundles across its outlets in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Al Ain. The Final Whistle Squad package is priced at AED 299 ($81), while the Extra-Time Pasta + Pizza deal costs AED 109 ($30). These bundles cater to fans watching live matches, combining Italian cuisine with sports entertainment.
Barbossa has launched a limited-edition cocktail menu featuring summer flavours such as the Hugo Spritz and Barbossa Spritz, each priced at AED 55 ($15). The new offerings aim to refresh the venue's beverage lineup during the warmer months.
Families can take advantage of The Club Abu Dhabi's one-month Taster Membership, providing access to sports, wellness, and dining facilities. Priced at AED 675 ($183) per adult and AED 205 ($56) per junior, the membership is positioned as a way to explore club life during the school holidays. This initiative aligns with broader efforts to position Abu Dhabi as a family-friendly destination, complementing attractions such as SeaWorld Abu Dhabi and Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi.
The weekend program reflects Abu Dhabi's strategy to diversify its leisure offerings beyond traditional luxury tourism. With events ranging from casual dining to premium brunches, the emirate continues to build a vibrant social scene that appeals to a broad demographic. Travel professionals may note the potential for packaging these activities with hotel stays or flight deals, particularly as the summer season sees increased promotional activity from carriers like Emirates and Etihad.
