Celebrating New Year’s Eve in Marrakech 2026 feels different from European cities. There are no public fireworks or large street gatherings, and many traditional neighbourhoods stay quiet. Most of the festive atmosphere takes place indoors rather than outdoors.
Because there are no official Marrakech city events, the experience depends entirely on the venue you choose. Restaurants, hotels, rooftops, and desert camps prepare their own New Year’s Eve programmes, often with limited availability. Booking early is the best way to secure the celebration style you want.
When planning a new year eve in Marrakech 2026, keep in mind that celebrations can be on the pricier side, especially in hotels and fine-dining venues, or places offering dinner with a show.
I can also suggest maybe even head to Essaouira coastal town and celebrate New Years there, check my other list Where to celebrate New Years Eve 2026 in Essaouira Morocco?
Also, many places don’t announce publicly the New Year’s Eve Marrakech programme, so if you have your fav place, contact them yourself. Like I did, because this information in my list you will not find anywhere else.
Kabana Rooftop Marrakech
KABANA 2026 NYE programme: music lineup featuring the renowned DJ Mr Id, DJ Ebba, and Gatsby Live Band. The minimum spend is 3000 MAD per person, fully redeemable on food and beverages. No dress code is required. You are welcome to come as you feel most comfortable; your well-being and enjoyment are our top priority. To book, send an email: booking@kabana-marrakech.com
Kabana Marrakech rooftop food and cocktails restaurant is one of the most trendy restaurants in Marrakech. Only a few minutes from the famous Jemaa el-Fna square, Kabana has a fantastic view of the Koutoubia mosque, great DJs, international vibes, and good food. More contemporary vibes, love their music and style. Even though it is in Medina, it is a great location, at the exit of Medina, next to the road with taxis. I personally love Kabana rooftop, and we go there time to time with my friends – so not only a place for tourists (great contemporary music and DJ programme). So, I would go for NYE here for sure.
