Louvre Abu Dhabi
The iconic Louvre Abu Dhabi offers several enticing event spaces that are perfect for pre or post tours of the museum and its exhibitions. One option is the modern Art Lounge, located on the rooftop overlooking the city skyline and the Arabian Gulf and ideal for sunset cocktails and canapés. For exclusive fine dining, Fouquet’s Abu Dhabi is a Champs-Elysées brasserie tucked away in the heart of the museum. In collaboration with Michelin-starred Chef Pierre Gagnaire, it presents an exceptional culinary journey and is perfect for a business lunch or dinner with wow factor. The restaurant’s cosy Marta Bar can also be hired for private events and shakes up a sophisticated collection of cocktails and mocktails. louvreabudhabi.ae; fouquetsabudhabi.com
