La Mamounia is turning its historic gardens into an open-air dining venue for three nights, bringing together chefs Emmanuel Renaut and Olivier Nasti, with desserts created by Pierre Hermé.
The series begins on October 6 and runs through October 8, with a different programme planned for each evening.
The dinners will take place in the hotel’s gardens, with cocktails served from 8 p.m. and dinner beginning at 8:30 p.m.
Three Nights, Three Different Menus
The programme opens with Emmanuel Renaut.
Renaut, chef of Flocons de Sel in Megève, holds three Michelin stars and is a Meilleur Ouvrier de France.
On October 7, he will join Olivier Nasti for a four-hands dinner combining both chefs’ approaches.
Nasti, who leads La Table d’Olivier Nasti in Kaysersberg, holds two Michelin stars and is also a Meilleur Ouvrier de France.
He will then lead the final dinner on October 8.
Each evening will finish with a dessert created by Pierre Hermé.
The Gardens Become Part of the Dining Experience
The setting is central to the event.
La Mamounia’s gardens are among the hotel’s best-known features, and for these three evenings they become the main dining space.
That gives the series a different atmosphere from a conventional restaurant service.
Rather than bringing guests into a formal dining room, the event places the meal outdoors, surrounded by the hotel’s gardens and evening setting.
Seating is limited.
Marrakech Expands Its Fine-Dining Calendar
The dinners arrive at a time when Marrakech continues to broaden its high-end hospitality and dining offer.
The city already combines luxury hotels, riads, destination restaurants and rooftop venues.
Temporary events like this add another format: limited-run dining built around visiting chefs and one-off menus.
For La Mamounia, the three-night series also gives both visitors and local diners a different way to experience the property.
A Short-Lived Culinary Event
The event brings together three established names from French gastronomy in a temporary Marrakech setting.
Renaut leads the first evening.

Hermé provides dessert each night.
For three evenings, La Mamounia’s gardens become the setting for a dining programme that will disappear as quickly as it arrived.
Three nights, three culinary names, and one of Marrakech’s best-known hotel gardens turned into an open-air dining room.
