Manar Mall has announced that the month-long RAK Eats Festival will return for its sixth edition in December, celebrating the best cuisines from the region as the UAE marks its 53rd Eid Al Etihad.

Taking place from December 1 to 31 at Manar Malls’ waterfront promenade, between 4pm to 11pm every day, RAK Eats will bring together 47 food and beverage outlets, placing the spotlight on local and national entrepreneurs.

Visitors will have access to a wide range of local and Arab dishes available, offering a culinary journey that reflects the region’s rich heritage.

Additionally, adults and children can look forward to several cultural performances, family-friendly entertainment, and festive activities while educational workshops on healthy-eating and well-being will also be held.

Lee Northmore, Vice President, Manar Mall & Retail Leasing, Al Hamra, said: “In the space of five years, the RAK Eats Festival has established itself as a key event on the Ras Al Khaimah calendar which is why we are delighted to again be hosting it this year.

“Every element has been carefully curated to ensure the festival showcases not only the best of international cuisines but also provides a platform to connect and engage with culinary talents from the emirate’s local community as we aim to enhance the experience for everyone.

“The staging of the festival also aligns with our on-going efforts to attract more visitors to Ras Al Khaimah and Manar Mall in particular, giving them the chance to see first-hand the venue’s offerings, helping to further strengthen its position as a leading retail and cultural destination.

“We look forward to welcoming guests to this year’s festival for what promises to be an unforgettable celebration of food and culture.”

Visitors to RAK Eats can also enjoy the scenic Manar Mall Promenade, a sprawling 100,000-sqft waterfront walkway offering uninterrupted views of the serene mangroves.

This vibrant venue has long been a hub for major events and continues to solidify its reputation as a premier leisure and entertainment space in the heart of Ras Al Khaimah.

RAK EATS underscores Manar Mall’s dedication to fostering partnerships with local SME business owners while aligning with Al Hamra’s ambitious five-year growth strategy, reflecting the group’s commitment to optimising retail assets and playing a pivotal role in realising the emirate’s vision of becoming a leading economic and recreational destination. – TradeArabia News Service
