Madi - Zelt der Sinne

Christmas Celebration with Dinner Show Mirage in the Royal Tent in Berlin-Tegel

The dinner show Mirage at Madi – Zelt der Sinne brings together a story, artistry, and a multi-course menu in one evening, and as a Christmas celebration, this evening needs no additional program. Mirage tells the story of Ali, a vagabond from Muscat, who lands tired and thirsty in the tent late at night and discovers an inconspicuous pitcher in which the magical genie Djamal lives. Between the scenes, artists take over with juggling, magic, and oriental dance. Crucially, the arrangement of the space: The stage forms the center of the round tent, and guests sit all around, so no table is off to the side, and the entire team experiences the same evening. The Royal Tent accommodates up to 180 people; smaller groups celebrate in the Harem Tent or the Oriental Lounge. Hosts Hamdan and Regina Madi have run the establishment for over 20 years and aim to build a bridge between cultures with tea and pastries, Moroccan live music, and dance. The tent is located in Tegel, so the Christmas celebration takes place in a handcrafted Caidal tent and not in a conference room.

Arabian Menu Alternating with Show Scenes

At Madi – Zelt der Sinne, dining alternates with the show. After each show block, a course of the Arabian menu arrives at the table, so food and program intertwine. The menu includes three courses and is also available in a vegetarian and a vegan version. The show runs in blocks, with time for eating and table conversations in between. Because all courses are served at the table, the group remains together all evening. It is best to communicate any wishes and intolerances within the team when booking, so the kitchen can plan accordingly. After the last course, there is time to remain seated at the table and let the evening end together.
