Karak for the people who come together

Charity drives, community gatherings and neighbourhood events work best when people have a reason to stay and talk. Karak and gahwa poured in front of guests do that. Cha Cha Chai brings the same live karak and gahwa station, flasks and trays that we supply to weddings, majlis evenings and offices in Dubai.

Options and prices

  • Live karak and gahwa station. From AED 900, quoted to your guest count and hours. It needs from 5 working days' notice, and a 50% deposit confirms your date.
  • Self-serve majlis station. From AED 45 per person, minimum 30 guests: gahwa from the dallah, premium dates and a karak urn, in a two-hour window.
  • Hosted majlis. From AED 85 per person, minimum 40 guests: the majlis station, with a uniformed host pouring for your guests for two to three hours.
  • Flasks and trays. A 1L karak flask is AED 40 (about 6 cups) and a 1L saffron chai flask AED 44. A 10-cup tray is from AED 250, with samosa pav extra.

All prices exclude 5% VAT, and published prices are for Dubai. Majlis figures are as published on our page for weddings, majlis and private events.

Which one fits

For a drive with volunteers and a small stand, flasks and a tray are usually enough. For a community gathering with a main moment, a live station gives guests a place to gather. For an evening seated in a majlis style, the majlis station or hosted majlis is built for it. Tell us the guest count and hours and we recommend the option on your quote.

Community gatherings and Ramadan

Evening community gatherings are quoted like any other event. For the holy month, see our page on Ramadan office karak.
