The Dubai Mall is the world’s largest shopping mall by total area, but it’s much more than shopping. With over 200 attractions, restaurants, and entertainment options, a visit to the Dubai Mall can easily fill an entire day. Here’s your complete guide to tickets and activities.

Dubai Mall Attractions

Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo

One of the largest suspended aquariums in the world, visible from the mall’s ground floor. The aquarium tunnel walk lets you stroll beneath thousands of aquatic animals including sharks and rays. The Underwater Zoo above features penguins, crocodiles, and dozens of marine exhibits.

Dubai Ice Rink

An Olympic-sized ice rink located inside the mall. Open to skaters of all skill levels with skate rentals available. Perfect for families looking to escape Dubai’s heat.

Dubai Dino

A 155-million-year-old authentic dinosaur skeleton (Diplodocus longus) displayed in the mall’s atrium — free to view for all visitors.

VR Park

A massive virtual reality and augmented reality theme park with over 30 experiences. Great for teens and adults seeking cutting-edge entertainment.

Dubai Mall Fountain

The Dubai Fountain — the world’s largest choreographed fountain — puts on a free show every 30 minutes from 6 PM daily. Viewing from the lakeside promenade is free, or pay for a boat ride for a closer look.

Getting to Dubai Mall

Take the Dubai Metro Red Line to Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall station, then use the climate-controlled pedestrian bridge to reach the mall. The walk takes about 10–15 minutes. Taxis and ride-shares drop off directly at the main entrances.
