Travel agents and key industry representatives were among more than 120 people who attended a glittering event to celebrate the opening of the new Rixos Al Mairid Ras Al Khaimah.
The event, organised by Travel Gossip, took place in London’s STEREO Covent Garden and guests were able to find out about the brand-new five-star resort, which is situated on 1.5 kilometres of private beach in the heart of Arabia.
Two lucky agents won a four-night all-inclusive holiday to experience Rixos Al Mairid Ras Al Khaimah for themselves.

“A big thank you to everyone who was there to help make the evening such a success!”
Ras Al Khaimah UK and Ireland Market Manager Emma Charlesworth said: “The Rixos RAMRAK event in London was afantastic way for the new hotel to show agents and operators how committed they are as a brand to the UK travel trade. It was a really fun evening with free-flowing drinks, amazing music and excellent branding and imagery on show for the hotel!
“Ras Al Khaimah has welcomed quite a few new brands to the destination in recent years, with more to come in 2025.
