Good to know

Last entry is typically around 22:30 (30 minutes before closing). Your ticket is valid for the selected slot — arrive 15 minutes early.

For photography: early morning (08:30–10:00) gives clean light and minimal haze. About 90 minutes before sunset offers warm golden tones. After 20:00, the city glitters.

In peak season (November–March), on holidays, and during the Dubai Shopping Festival, book 1–2 weeks ahead. Sunset slots can disappear a month in advance.

There are no fixed free days or permanent UAE‑resident discounts. Summer low season (June–August) often brings promotions — check the official site.
