Yes, almost exactly. Ramadan is expected to begin on Monday 8 February, two days after Chinese New Year, subject to the official moon sighting. Visitors arriving that week can experience both these special occasions within days of each other.

Abu Dhabi covers a lot of ground for a single trip, especially in February when temperatures are mildest.

Saadiyat Cultural District alone is home to major attractions like Louvre Abu Dhabi, teamLab Phenomena Abu Dhabi, Zayed National Museum, Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi and Guggenheim Abu Dhabi, all within walking distance of one another. The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque stays open to visitors throughout Ramadan and is particularly atmospheric once lit at night. Yas Island adds Ferrari World, SeaWorld® Abu Dhabi and Yas Waterworld for families. Outside the city, a desert safari provides once-in-a-lifetime experiences like dune bashing or camel rides at sunset.

For Chinese New Year itself, several hotels mark the occasion each year with lion dance performances and Cantonese set menus that rival the best dining in the world.

Absolutely – hotels and most restaurants provide screened areas where non-fasting guests can eat and drink throughout the day. Eating, drinking or smoking in public view during daylight hours, however, should ideally be avoided out of respect.
