This is your chance to be part of the new ‘Mama Quilla’ celebration in Dubai
A unique campaign to celebrate femininity, culture and purpose has been launched this April by COYA Abu Dhabi and COYA Dubai.
The immersive Peruvian lifestyle brand unveils the inaugural edition of ‘Mama Quilla’, a month-long global celebration inspired by the powerful Andean moon goddess who embodies femininity, protection, and renewal.
With its signature blend of bold flavours, vibrant energy, and meaningful storytelling, COYA is inviting guests in Dubai and Abu Dhabi to experience a soulful journey that celebrates culture and gives back to the community.
Running from 15 April to 15 May in Dubai, and 20 April to 20 May in Abu Dhabi, ‘Mama Quilla’ brings together curated culinary experiences, female-led conversations, creative showcases, and purpose-driven philanthropy; all rooted in the spirit of empowerment.
At the heart of the campaign is a specially crafted AED 299 set menu, featuring signature COYA dishes alongside a themed dessert and mocktail.
15 per cent of proceeds from the menu will be donated to Dubai Cares, supporting educational initiatives for underprivileged children and youth across the globe.
As the ‘Mama Quilla’ celebration unfolds, guests across both cities will be treated to a series of immersive events that honour the divine feminine through creativity, cuisine, and connection.
