Toast to a Unique Austrian Feast with Courtyard by Marriott

Embark on a distinct tradition this October as Courtyard by Marriott World Trade Center, together with the Austrian Embassy, celebrates Vienna Heuriger, the grand showcase of the finest harvest of grapes from Austria.

In a truly time-honoured merriment of Austrian traditions made possible by the support of the Abu Dhabi Golf Club, Daburon & Partners Legal Consultants LLP, the Austrian Business Council and Advantage Austria, Courtyard by Marriott World Trade Center, Abu Dhabi brings the Gemütlichkeit spirit, also known as the heart-warming atmosphere of friendliness and cosiness that is commonly found among grape taverns. From the 26th of October until the 28th of October, Up & Below will be transformed into a vine tavern, adorned with grape leaves for the most genuine Austrian festivity in the capital.

Courtyard by Marriott World Trade Center, Abu Dhabi’s culinary artisans remain true to their commitment of a one of a kind Viennese celebration with a presentation of signature grapes. What better way to celebrate Vienna Heuriger than with a gastronomic tour to satiate your taste buds? Honorary guest for the three-day event is Austria’s Executive Chef Manfred Koeck who will be gracing the Vienna Heuriger exclusively to create resplendent spreads of Austrian dishes.

The festivity is completed with a special performance from Austrian band Neue Wiener Concert Schrammeln who will fly to the UAE all the way from Vienna to add a musical delight to the evening’s vibrant festivities with the traditional Schrammelmusik.

After an evening of gastronomic experience and live entertainment, retreat to a relaxing escape within the city at Courtyard by Marriott World Trade Center, Abu Dhabi for an unparalleled level of staycation.
