Dubai, UAE – January 2026 — With Ramadan approaching, many households and event planners have already started thinking about how they will welcome guests during the holy month. For some, it means refreshing their interiors; for others, it’s about creating a space where people feel comfortable sitting together long after iftar.
Majlis seating has always been part of that experience, and this year, Areeka Event Rentals is drawing attention to a new addition, a wooden high majlis range that has quietly made its way into the company’s lineup of Arabic majlis furniture in Dubai.
The Norfolk Arabic Wooden Sofas and the Bratley Arabic Sofas are among the newest pieces in the collection, bringing together traditional majlis styling with a slightly elevated wooden build. Designed with both appearance and everyday usability in mind, the seating offers comfortable support while making it easier for guests to sit down and stand up something that becomes especially valuable during longer Ramadan gatherings. The look remains familiar and culturally grounded, yet the added height introduces a practical upgrade that works well in both private homes and larger event environments.
According to the team at Areeka, the decision to expand into high seating came after repeated requests from clients who wanted something traditional but a bit more supportive.
"We kept hearing the same thing — people love the feel of a majlis, but they also want comfort that lasts through the evening," a company representative explained. "The wooden high majlis naturally brings those two expectations together."
The sofas are designed to be flexible in layout, whether they’re arranged along the walls of a private home or used to shape a larger Ramadan tent. Their presence is subtle yet polished, allowing hosts to build a setting that feels thoughtful without appearing overly staged.
Demand for Arabic majlis furniture in Dubai typically rises before Ramadan, when calendars begin filling with family visits, group iftars, and community gatherings. Seating often becomes the anchor of these occasions — not just a practical requirement, but part of the atmosphere people remember.
Rather than dramatically changing the traditional majlis look, Areeka’s wooden high collection leans into familiarity while offering a small upgrade in posture and support. It’s the kind of adjustment guests may not immediately notice, but tend to appreciate once they settle in.
As preparations continue across the city, having a comfortable place to gather remains at the heart of Ramadan hosting. Thoughtful seating encourages conversation, slows the evening down, and helps turn simple visits into meaningful time spent together, exactly what the majlis has represented for generations.
