Ramadan Culture Exchange & Iftar Potluck

Ever wondered what Ramadan is all about? Do you have questions you’d love to ask practicing Muslims? Here’s your chance! Join Couchsurfers who live in Dubai, as well as traveling members, for a beautiful evening of sharing and connection over an ‘Iftar’ potluck. This is a Potluck event — which means everyone brings a dish, snacks, or drinks to share with the group. ‘Iftar’ is the evening meal with which Muslims end their daily Ramadan fast at sunset. The fast is broken at the time of the call to prayer (Adhan/Azaan) for the evening prayer (Maghrib). It’s a special and meaningful moment — and you’re warmly welcome to experience it with us. *** What to bring *** Food and drinks to share. If you have a mat or foldable chairs, feel free to bring them along. Garbage bags, disposable plates/glasses are helpful too — and of course, bring your beautiful Couchsurfing spirit and good mood! For your convenience, we will have a trolley available to help move boxes, food, and other items from the main gate to our final picnic spot.
