Abu Dhabi, UAE: Manar Abu Dhabi, a Public Art Abu Dhabi initiative, is launching an exciting new culinary collaboration. It partners with WE ARE ONA and Luca Pronzato. This marks the renowned collective’s first appearance in the UAE. Crucially, it brings their distinctive blend of art, design, and gastronomy to Abu Dhabi’s burgeoning cultural landscape.
The exclusive and immersive pop-up dining experience features guest chef Solemann Haddad of Michelin-starred Moonrise. It will run from 16 – 22 November 2025, at Jubail Island, Abu Dhabi.
A Dialogue Between Fire and Stars
WE ARE ONA X Manar Abu Dhabi debuts its first-ever culinary event in the Middle East. It invites guests to explore the ancestral art of outdoor cooking. The concept draws inspiration from two elemental forces: fire and stars.
As aromas rise and shadows dance, guests will be transported. This creates a suspended moment where nourishment becomes ritual. Dining transforms into a quiet dialogue between earth and sky.
The collective builds on a global journey of creating unique and ephemeral culinary experiences. In fact, WE ARE ONA has held pop-ups in Paris, Hong Kong, New York, Arles, and Aspen.
