New Year's Eve 31.12.2025

An unforgettable midnight — a Mediterranean symphony where every flavour closes one year and opens another.

On the final night of the year, Five Seasons invites you to The Fifth Midnight - an opulent, immersive tasting experience celebrating rebirth, reflection, and the beauty of impermanence.

Each dish becomes a movement; each guest, a note in the composition.
Twelve to sixteen courses unfold like a crescendo toward midnight - luminous, marine, and alive.

Every plate a story, every sip a resolution, every moment unrepeated.
