Spend your Dubai holiday reliving your childhood at LEGOLAND Dubai

Last Updated:

LEGOLAND is a family theme park, based on the mega popular LEGO building blocks. The fun-filled arena in Dubai is part of the much-bigger Dubai Parks and Resorts, which also includes two other theme parks, Motiongate, and Bollywood Parks.

LEGOLAND Dubai is split into two parks - LEGOLAND Theme Park and LEGOLAND Waterpark. Within the main LEGOLAND complex, there’s a thrilling Waterpark with rides that both you and your kids can enjoy.

Why You Must Visit LEGOLAND Dubai


With over 40 fantastic rides, family-friendly attractions, and innovative play areas for kids, LEGOLAND is a special place.

If your kids are familiar with the magic of LEGOS, they’ll appreciate the fun and excitement of a land made entirely of giant LEGOS. If they aren’t used to playing with these tiny blocks of joy, well, now’s the time to get them started!

The park also boasts of a giant LEGO version of Dubai’s pride, the Burj Khalifa and the enchanting Dubai skyline. And if that wasn't enough, there's an entire waterpark made of LEGO bricks waiting for you.

You can either buy tickets to Legoland Dubai which gives you access to only the theme park, or Legoland Waterpark tickets that give you access to the waterpark alone.

Should you wish you visit both the parks, you can buy a combo ticket that will give you some serious savings!

Fair warning: checking out both parks on the same day might be a little tough, but not impossible.

Hacks To Avoid Crowds at LEGOLAND Dubai


The best time to visit LEGOLAND Dubai is during the months of September through March. The winter months of Dubai are usually less crowded, and the weather is pleasant- making it apt for all kinds of outdoor activities.

That said, do not let summer be a deterrant for you- the park has multiple cooling stations, and many attractions at the theme park are indoors.

Visiting During Ramadan

Many are skeptical about taking a trip to Dubai during Ramadan because of the holiday rush, but there is a way around it. If you start your day early, hit the attractions right around the time they open, and avoid the weekends, you can enjoy the holiday season in the UAE to the fullest. Ramadan also comes with holiday discounts on your tickets, so it's a great way to save money.

Tip: Before you visit LEGOLAND Dubai, make sure you check the timings. Park timings and visiting hours are different for the summer, winter, and Ramadan.

Insider Tips For Visiting LEGOLAND Dubai



  1. As you would expect, weekends at the LEGOLAND Dubai are pretty crowded. We would recommend going in during weekdays to skip the crowd.

  2. Outside food is not allowed except for baby food. So pack accordingly.

  3. The theme park section of LEGOLAND has a baby care facility in the Imagination Land. Equipped with a kitchenette and play area for babies, the baby care facility is perfect for mothers to nurse their kids while the older kids entertain themselves.

  4. Parking facility is available at the Dubai Parks and Resorts.

  5. There’s a short walk from where you park your car to the entrance of the park. Avoid high heels or uncomfortable footwear because you’ll be walking around a lot!

  6. Carry water bottles. It will get pretty hot and you’ll need to stay hydrated at all times.

  7. If you’re planning on visiting LEGOLAND Dubai during the summers, we would recommend renting a cabana for your family. While a tad expensive and available in a limited number, it provides you a cool spot in all the heat, fridge, and extra service from the park staff.

  8. There are shoe racks available near each water ride, where you can deposit your footwear. Since the ground can get pretty warm during the summers, only take of your shoes/slippers when entering a water ride.

  9. A combo pass for LEGOLAND Dubai and LEGOLAND Water Park is a great way to money and experience both parks together.
