Dubai Garden Glow combines a Dinosaur Park with life-size animatronic dinosaurs and a Fantasy Park of illuminated sculptures inside Zabeel Park, Bur Dubai. Open evenings, Wednesday to Monday.
What is it
Dubai Garden Glow is an evening attraction inside Zabeel Park made up of two adjoining sections: the Dinosaur Park, with life-size animatronic dinosaurs set among landscaped paths, and the Fantasy Park, a walk-through display of large illuminated and decorative structures. A single ticket gives access to both sections, which together take roughly two hours to walk through.
Zones and activities by age
The dinosaur trail and the light installations are designed as a walk-through experience for the whole family rather than a ride-based theme park, so there is no minimum height or age requirement. Children under 3 are admitted free of charge. Older children tend to get the most out of the dinosaur facts and photo spots, while toddlers mainly enjoy the lit-up sculptures in the Fantasy Park.
Where to find it
The attraction sits inside Zabeel Park in Bur Dubai, accessed through Gate 3, Area A, next to the Dubai Frame. The nearest metro stop is Al Jafiliya on the Red Line.
Prices and tickets
Entry covering both the Dinosaur Park and Fantasy Park is priced at around AED 70–75 per person, with children under 3 entering free. Combined tickets that add further Zabeel Park attractions are also sold at higher prices. It is worth checking the current rates before visiting, since pricing is adjusted seasonally.
Good to know
- Open Wednesday to Monday, 4pm to 9pm; closed on Tuesdays except during public holidays.
- Outside food and drinks, as well as pets, are not allowed inside.
- Paths are mostly flat and stroller-friendly, but the park is only open in the evening after dark, which is part of the lighting effect.
Nearby in Bur Dubai
