Iris Dubai has launched an Italian inspired Aperitivo event held every Sunday from 3-8pm where guests can enjoy complimentary nibbles with every Aperitivo beverage purchased, music by resident DJ John Bowtie and live entertainment courtesy of an energetic brass brand that will have guests dancing through the sunset.
Iris’ renowned mixologists have curated a beverage menu which includes an array of classic aperitif beverages, starting from AED 30, such as Aperol Spritz, Hugo and Boulevardier, along with Iris’ signature ‘Trenzado Negroni’ (Tanqueray London Dry Gin infused with French thyme, sweet vermouth with maraschino cherries, Martini Bitter with orange peels).
Each Aperitivo beverage is accompanied by a delicious selection of complimentary nibbles such as cold cuts, cheeses, focaccia, mini pizzas, Mediterranean olives, marinated artichoke hearts, tapenades and dips.
Transporting guests to the streets of Italy during summer, an invigorating live band brings a free-spirited energy to the chic Meydan venue with their unique twists on popular songs.
The perfect way to enjoy a relaxed Sunday afternoon, ‘Iris Aperitivo’ is a nod to the Italian cultural ritual of socialising with friends while sipping on sunset-hued cocktails and nibbling on salty snacks, chatting and enjoying each other’s company.
‘Iris Aperitivo’ is the newest addition to the venue’s signature happy hour events. Set against the backdrop of a sparkling Dubai skyline, Iris welcomes guests to enjoy ‘Sunset Sessions’ from 6-8pm every Monday to Thursday with beverages from AED 25, and ‘Friday Sessions’ from 5-8pm where guests can opt for the regular happy hour menu or the ‘Sunset Package’ featuring a charcuterie board and two hours of free-flowing beverages for AED 150.
