DUBAI – The legendary Queen Elizabeth 2, permanently docked in Dubai, is set to take guests on a gastronomic expedition unlike any other.

From 1st October to 19th December 2025, the ship will host ‘Around the World in 80 Days’, an immersive dining series inspired by her globe-spanning journeys.

Each of the 80 nights will present a new three-course menu reflecting one of the historic destinations the QE2 visited during her service at sea. Diners will be taken on a nightly culinary tour of global cultures and flavours, making every evening a unique chapter in the ship’s legacy.

Global menus

Among the highlighted stops are Cannes, Male, Kagoshima, Honolulu, and Naples in October. November will feature destinations including Pattaya, Hong Kong, Bombay, and New York. December menus will showcase dishes from Las Palmas, Vung Tau, Monte Carlo, and culminate with a Dubai-inspired finale. Guests can explore the full schedule of destinations on the QE2’s official website.

Dining details

Priced at Dh125 per adult, each experience includes a three-course dinner paired with a signature mocktail or cocktail. Children under six dine free, while those aged six to twelve enjoy a 50 per cent discount. Two seatings are available nightly: 6:30 pm and 8:30 pm, each beginning with a welcome drink before dinner is served.
