Still waiting for your Hogwarts letter? Same. But until an owl finally drops one through the window, Abu Dhabi has cooked up the next best thing, a Harry Potter Brunch Abu Dhabi at Dusit Thani. And no, this isn’t some half-hearted “stick a wand on a cupcake” deal. This is the real thing, robes, spells, themed food and all.
For Just AED 265, Harry Potter Brunch Lands Back In Abu Dhabi For One Day Only

On Sunday, 28 September 2025, the hotel’s Skydome will turn into a slice of Hogwarts between 12.30 pm and 4 pm. For AED 265 a head, you get a front-row seat to wizardry that doesn’t involve queuing for butterbeer at Universal Studios.
Food That Feels Straight Out Of The Great Hall
Let’s face it, brunch is usually about piling up a plate and pretending you’re not going back for seconds. Here though? You’ll probably be more focused on which house-themed spread looks the most tempting. Gryffindor fans might eye the bold, hearty bites, while Ravenclaws (you know, the ones who claim to “eat smart”) will probably sniff out the lighter dishes. Everything’s prepped live, so you can hover near the stations and watch chefs conjure up your plate.
And no, sadly, the desserts won’t scream at you like the Howler letters, but they do look good enough, too. Expect more of a “wow, that actually tastes magical” moment.
Not Just Brunch, It’s A Full-On Scene
Truth be told, if you’re turning up only for the food, you’re missing half the fun. Dusit Thani is going heavy on the atmosphere. Think immersive décor that looks like the film sets had a baby with your Instagram feed. Staff in costume, entertainment to keep you glued, and enough photo ops to keep your camera roll screaming for mercy.
Come on, we all know the real reason people book themed brunches, for those snaps where you look like you’re sipping firewhisky under floating candles. Don’t fight it.
Prices And The Fine Print
Alright, the money bit. AED 265 gets you the brunch with soft drinks. Want something stronger? Go for the AED 395 option with house drinks. Kids aged 7 to 12 are a steal at AED 90, and under-sixes eat free which is frankly brilliant, because little ones tend to be more entertained by the décor than the buffet.
To be fair, it’s pretty decent value considering how many brunches in the city cost double without a flying broomstick in sight.
Dress The Part Or Be The Muggle
You don’t have to, but honestly, why wouldn’t you? Whether it’s a Gryffindor scarf, Slytherin robes, or just a cheeky wand you panic-bought from Amazon, dressing up makes the Harry Potter Brunch Abu Dhabi ten times better. No one’s judging here. In fact, you’ll probably stand out more if you rock up in plain jeans.

One Day Only, Don’t Snooze
Here’s the catch: it’s literally one day only. Miss it, and you’ll be kicking yourself until 2026. Spaces always go quick, so gather your gang and book via dusit.com before every table vanishes.
