What Art Dubai is, and the dates
Art Dubai is an international art fair in Dubai. The 2027 edition is announced by the organiser for public days 9–11 April 2027 and preview days 7–8 April 2027, at Madinat Jumeirah, Dubai (source: Art Dubai’s own announcement at artdubai.ae). Dates can shift, so please confirm them on artdubai.ae before you plan or book. We do not publish opening hours or ticketing here; the organiser gives those.
How we fit around Dubai’s art week
ROAST is not an official partner or supplier of Art Dubai, and we do not have access to the fair venue through this page. Any catering at the fair itself must follow the organiser’s and the venue’s catering rules and be arranged through them. Where we can help is the hospitality that surrounds the week: galleries, brand partners and hosts with their own spaces or private events in Dubai.
- ✦Gallery hospitality: a compact cart in a gallery or project space, sized to the room, for openings, previews and private viewings
- ✦Collector and VIP evenings: a staffed bar for invited guests, with seating and floor plan handled by your team or venue
- ✦Brand and sponsor lounges: a premium coffee and karak moment inside your own lounge, activation or partner event in Dubai
- ✦Live karak station: karak only, poured to order by a dedicated server
- ✦Branded cups: your name on the cup (quoted per event, with lead time for printing)
Venue approval: check the venue and organiser catering policy
Whether a cart can operate in a given space depends on the venue and, for fair events, the organiser, not on us. We do not describe their rules here. Check the venue and organiser catering policy before you book, and use our coffee cart venue requirements checklist to see what to ask. We help you ask and we never promise approval. Your 50% deposit is taken only after your service route is confirmed, and it is refunded in full if approval is later declined.
