The Largest Stage on the Water
At 170 feet, the Athena 170 is the largest yacht in our New Year’s Eve fleet — and on a night when Dubai performs for the whole world, scale matters. She is not a venue near the fireworks. She is a stage inside them.
One group takes her for the night. Nobody else boards, and the entire coastline is the backdrop.
Positioned for Midnight
The Athena 170 leaves Dubai Marina in the early evening and holds station ahead of the countdown. Depending on the official programme, the captain anchors off:
Palm Jumeirah
Burj Al Arab
Bluewaters Island
Dubai Marina and JBR
From 170 feet of open deck, the displays do not compete with rooftops or crowds — they unfold at eye level, across the whole horizon.
Sixteen Guests, Six Cabins
She hosts up to 16 guests for the evening — a deliberate number. On a yacht of this size, sixteen people do not fill the space; they own it. Saloon, dining deck, flybridge and foredeck each hold a different part of the night, and the party moves between them as it pleases.
Six cabins mean the evening never has to end at the marina. Guests can rest aboard and wake on the water on the first morning of 2027.
Dinner at Midnight’s Edge
A live chef prepares the evening’s menu on board — a seated dinner before the countdown, champagne and canapés as the displays begin. Service is arranged around the night, not the other way round.
For how the evening is structured across the fleet, see our page on chartering a yacht for New Year’s Eve in Dubai.
The Evening — and the Night in Full
The six-hour New Year’s Eve charter is AED 220,000: boarding in the early evening, midnight at anchor, and a return to Dubai Marina once the displays fade.
The 24-hour package at AED 320,000 extends the night into the new year itself — board on 31 December, celebrate past midnight, sleep aboard, and step ashore on 1 January after breakfast on deck.
One Night, Once a Year
The Athena 170 accepts a single booking for New Year’s Eve. A deposit holds the date; the captain confirms the final anchorage and timings against the official display schedule in the days before departure.
