The pop-up returns to 25hours Hotel One Central.
The UAE is home to many majlis that host iftar and suhoor during the month of Ramadan. This year, Not a Majlis, a concept by Not A Space, returns to 25hours Hotel One Central.
Located within One Central, inside Tandoor Tina on the ground floor of the 25hours Hotel One Central, Not a Majlis is a special pop-up that promises a laid-back setting and an array of entertainment options. Be it live music, views of the Museum of the Future or the company of friends gathered together to play a game of backgammon, this spot is poised to become a favourite this Ramadan.
Not A Majlis at 25hours Hotel will feature a setting similar to a Middle Eastern household. With patterned rugs and seating akin to those found in an actual majlis, this spot has plenty to offer. Indulge in drinks ranging from coffee to hot chocolate, and food such as burgers, pasta, and more.
The family-friendly features include modern and traditional games, from board games to video games. We’re talking PlayStations with multiple controllers, so you can let out your competitive streak. We also spotted beanbags for lounging and illuminated decorations, from a moon decorated with fairy lights to lit-up walls.
Previous editions of Not a Majlis have been held at Souk Madinat Jumeirah. Its parent concept, Not A Space, is located in Al Faya, Sharjah, and offers desserts and coffee amidst the desert dunes. The concept has since been rebranded for Ramadan and adopted a new playful title. So, if you’re after an old-school majlis with a difference, this is well worth a visit.
If you want to visit Not A Majlis, it’s only open for a short time. The pop-up is open daily from 6.30pm to 3am and runs until the end of Ramadan.
Ramadan Kareem.
