Sip, sing and dance at this unique fan-led celebration
Calling all Swifties in Abu Dhabi, this is your moment. A high-energy, music-filled Taylor Swift-themed brunch is set to take over the capital, bringing together great food, free-flowing drinks and a crowd united by one thing: a love for all things Taylor. Designed as an immersive evening experience, the event promises to turn a classic brunch into a full-blown pop celebration.
Hosted at the ever-popular Ma Buckley’s, the brunch invites fans of Taylor Swift to step into a space where every era, lyric and beat is celebrated. From the moment guests arrive, the atmosphere is expected to buzz with excitement, anticipation and plenty of sing-along moments.
An Evening Brunch Designed for Swifties
Unlike a traditional daytime brunch, this Taylor Swift-themed event unfolds in the evening, running from 7pm to 10pm. The later timing sets the tone for a more party-driven experience, blending dining with dancing and live crowd interaction. It is designed to feel less like a sit-down meal and more like a shared fan experience, where music takes centre stage and the energy builds as the night goes on.
The three-hour brunch package includes premium free-flow beverages, with a special selection of Taylor-inspired mixed drinks crafted exclusively for the event. From sparkling pours to creative cocktails, the drinks menu has been curated to keep spirits high while guests sing along to a soundtrack spanning Taylor’s entire career.
A Soundtrack That Spans Every Era
One of the biggest highlights of the night is the carefully curated playlist celebrating Taylor Swift’s musical journey. Expect a seamless mix of early country classics, pop anthems and fan-favourite deep cuts. Whether you fell in love during the Fearless era, danced endlessly through 1989, or connected deeply with the storytelling of Lover and beyond, the music promises something for every fan.
Throughout the evening, the playlist will fuel spontaneous sing-alongs and packed dancefloor moments. It is the kind of environment where strangers quickly become friends, bonded by shared lyrics and collective nostalgia. For Swifties, it is not just background music, it is the heart of the entire experience.
Games, Surprises and Interactive Fun
This brunch goes far beyond food and drinks. Guests can expect themed games woven into the evening, encouraging participation, laughter and friendly competition. From lyric challenges to Swift-inspired trivia, the interactive elements are designed to keep energy levels high and the crowd engaged.
Adding to the excitement are surprise moments scattered throughout the night. These Swiftie surprises are meant to delight fans and create memorable highlights, ensuring no two hours of the brunch feel the same. The focus is firmly on fun, inclusivity and shared celebration rather than a rigid schedule.
The Venue That Sets the Scene
Ma Buckley’s has long been known in Abu Dhabi for its lively brunch culture, generous portions and welcoming Irish hospitality. The venue’s warm interiors, buzzing atmosphere and reputation for weekend fun make it a natural fit for a themed event of this scale.
For this special brunch, the pub transforms into a Swiftie-friendly space, filled with fans ready to sing, dance and celebrate together. The relaxed yet energetic vibe of the venue allows guests to move freely between tables and the dancefloor, creating a fluid party atmosphere that feels spontaneous and joyful.
Dress the Part and Join the Fun
While there is no strict dress code, guests are encouraged to lean into the theme. Taylor-inspired outfits, subtle nods to favourite eras or bold statement looks all fit right in. Dressing up adds another layer of fun and helps build the sense of community that defines the evening.
Equally welcome are those who simply want to enjoy the music and atmosphere. Whether you arrive ready to belt out every word of All Too Well or prefer to sip cocktails while soaking in the vibes, the brunch is designed to be inclusive and welcoming to all levels of fandom.
Why This Brunch Stands Out
Abu Dhabi is no stranger to creative brunch concepts, but this Taylor Swift-themed event stands out for its clear focus on shared passion and experience. It taps into the global Swiftie phenomenon while tailoring it perfectly to the city’s vibrant brunch scene.
Rather than feeling gimmicky, the event feels thoughtfully designed, with music, drinks, games and atmosphere all working together. It is less about novelty and more about connection, allowing fans to celebrate an artist whose music has soundtracked so many moments in their lives.
