Christmas is landing early in Dubai, transforming the garden at Reform Social & Grill into a twinkling, festive haven. The MINT Market Christmas Special is lighting up The Lakes for one joyful weekend only, running Saturday 29 and Sunday 30 November. This pop-up celebrates everything that makes the holidays special: community, craftsmanship, and cozy corners. It’s a beautifully curated weekend that offers free entry and that unmistakable, vibrant Christmas card atmosphere, appealing to families and neighbors looking for an authentic holiday kick-off.
The MINT Market is renowned for its thoughtful curation, focusing on quality and authenticity. This Christmas edition showcases some of the UAE’s most loved homegrown brands, giving shoppers the chance to find unique, handmade gifts and sustainable treasures that won’t be found in large malls.
Shoppers can expect to browse:
- Charming handmade gifts and unique festive décor
- Sustainable finds and beautiful artisanal goods
- Workshops and crafts specifically for little ones
Adding heart to the holiday spirit, Thrift for Good joins the market as the official charity partner. Every dirham raised during the weekend will go toward supporting children’s causes, ensuring that the act of holiday shopping also contributes to a meaningful purpose. This focus on CSR aligns with the growing consumer preference for brands that support local makers and actively give back to the community.
A visit to the MINT Market wouldn’t be complete without the festive fuel. Reform Social & Grill will be keeping everyone warm and well-fed with classic holiday treats.
Guests can enjoy a proper Turkey Roast with all the trimmings for just AED 135 per person, bringing the taste of a traditional Christmas dinner to the lakeside. To chase away the slight winter chill, mulled wine will be served for AED 37. Surrounded by twinkling lights and a HUGE Christmas tree, and with a cheerful soundtrack of Christmas tunes drifting through the garden, the market truly delivers an aspirational festive mood.
The event’s inclusive atmosphere is a major draw: entry is free, and the garden is dog friendly, making it the perfect spot for the entire family, including pets, to wander, shop, and soak up the merry mood together.
Mark your calendar for this joyful weekend. The MINT Market Christmas Special is the perfect opportunity to shop local, indulge in delicious holiday treats, and kick off the festive season in a cozy, community-focused setting at The Lakes.
