Under-3s are free with proof of age. A one-day combo with Legoland Water Park is AED 355 booked ahead and AED 395 on the day. Annual passes start from age 3: AED 395 for the theme park only, AED 495 for both parks. If you are staying a while and expect to come twice, the pass pays for itself on the second visit. Paying is easy for foreign visitors: buy tickets online with a bank card, and cards are widely taken across Dubai, taxis included. The exception is public transport — the metro and buses take only a Nol card, which you buy and top up with cash or card at station ticket offices and machines. > **The water park is not included** A Legoland Dubai ticket does **not** cover Legoland Water Park next door — you need the combo. And the AED 295 price only applies when you book **at least a day ahead**; on the day it is AED 330. Book the night before. ## Legoland Dubai opening hours The park opens **daily at 11:00** and closes at 19:00 on weekdays and 20:00 on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, according to its calendar for November and December 2026. Over the UAE National Day break and from mid-December, it stays open until 20:00 every day. Legoland Water Park keeps different hours — 10:00 to 17:30 — and is **closed on Wednesdays until 25 November 2026**. Hours change with the season, so check the official calendar before a summer trip. ## How to get to Legoland Dubai 1. From **Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall** station, ride the Red Line towards **Life Pharmacy** to **Ibn Battuta**. Trains for Expo 2020 split off after Jabal Ali, so check the destination screen. 2. Metro and buses take a Nol card; buy one at any station ticket office or machine. 3. Ibn Battuta station has a bus station next door. Take bus **DPR1** to Dubai Parks and Resorts — the park lists 26 daily trips between 7:00 and 23:15. Gaps are long, so check the RTA timetable first. 4. The bus drops you at the Bus and Taxi Center by Riverland; follow the LEGOLAND signs through Riverland to the gate. 5. Quicker: a taxi, Careem or Uber from Downtown takes about 35 minutes without traffic, about 20 from Dubai Marina and about 45 from DXB airport. ## Is Legoland Dubai worth it? Yes, if your kids are roughly 3 to 10 and love Lego. It fills a whole day, and most rides are built for children and parents to ride together. For teenagers or adults without kids the rides are tame — neighbouring [Motiongate](https://yesgo.io/united-arab-emirates/dubai/motiongate-dubai) or the indoor [IMG Worlds of Adventure](https://yesgo.io/united-arab-emirates/dubai/img-worlds-of-adventure) will suit them better. Height decides a lot: Wave Racers, Merlin’s Challenge and LEGO Technic Twister need 105 cm, City Airport, Rescue Academy and Kid Power Towers 95 cm, Lost Kingdom Adventure 90 cm, DUPLO Express and Submarine Adventure 80 cm. Factory Tour and Miniland have no limits. Children are measured with shoes on in the theme park and barefoot in the water park. ## What to see: the six lands - **Factory** — the entrance land. A Factory Tour shows how bricks are made and ends with a free brick fresh off the line; The BIG Shop is the largest Lego store in the Middle East. - **Miniland** — an indoor, air-conditioned hall with Dubai and Middle East landmarks in 20 million bricks, including a 17 m Burj Khalifa, plus Build A City, a 10 m table of white bricks. - **LEGO City** — Driving School, where kids drive and earn a Legoland licence, Boating School, City Airport and Rescue Academy, a family race to put out a “burning building”. - **Kingdoms** — the castle and the park’s headline coaster, **The Dragon**, plus Dragon’s Apprentice, a first coaster for little ones. - **Imagination** — build-and-race cars, LEGO MINDSTORMS robots, the LEGO Technic Twister, the 4D cinema and shaded DUPLO Valley for toddlers. - **Adventure** — Wave Racers, dodging water blasts, Lost Kingdom Adventure through ancient temple ruins, the underwater mission of Submarine Adventure and the Discovery Centre Aquarium. > **Dragon first, Miniland at midday** Gates open at 11:00. Head straight to Kingdoms for **The Dragon** before the queue builds. Save air-conditioned Miniland and the 4D cinema for the hottest hours. ## How long do you need at Legoland Dubai? Plan **4–6 hours** for the theme park alone. With the water park, make it a full day: arrive for the 10:00 water-park opening, cross to Legoland after lunch and stay until close. On very hot days, flip it — Legoland in the morning, water in the afternoon. Outside food isn’t allowed except baby food and medically needed meals; bags are checked at the gate. There are 9 restaurants and kiosks, lockers in Factory, stroller hire, baby-care rooms and prayer rooms. ## Legoland Water Park and Legoland Hotel **Legoland Water Park** is next door and aimed at the same 2–12 age group: more than 20 slides and pools, a wave pool, a lazy river where you build your own brick raft, and DUPLO Splash Safari for toddlers. A water-park-only ticket is AED 295 booked ahead or AED 330 on the day. **Legoland Hotel**, part of Legoland Dubai Resort, has Lego-themed rooms and a pool. It makes sense for two or more park days; for beaches, malls and the [Dubai Mall](https://yesgo.io/united-arab-emirates/dubai/dubai-mall), stay in the Marina or Downtown and do Legoland as a day trip. ## Before you go: checklist - [ ] Ticket bought online at least a day ahead - [ ] Decided on the water park — then it’s the combo - [ ] Not a November Wednesday, if the water park is in the plan - [ ] Proof of age for any under-3s - [ ] Nol card, or a taxi app ready - [ ] Hats, sunscreen and water — many rides are open-air - [ ] 4–6 hours set aside, a full day with the water park ## Legoland vs the water park vs Motiongate | | Legoland Dubai | Legoland Water Park | Motiongate | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | What it is | Lego theme park: 6 lands, Miniland | Lego water park, 20+ slides | Hollywood park: DreamWorks, Columbia, Lionsgate | | For | Kids 2–12 | Kids 2–12 | — | | Ticket booked ahead | AED 295 | AED 295 | Separate ticket | | Both Legoland parks | AED 355 booked ahead | AED 355 booked ahead | — | | Hours (Nov 2026) | 11:00–19:00, Sat–Sun to 20:00 | 10:00–17:30, closed Wed until 25 Nov | See its calendar | | Where | Dubai Parks and Resorts | Dubai Parks and Resorts | Dubai Parks and Resorts | All three share one car park, but each needs its own ticket. Under-10s: Legoland. A hot day: add the water park with the combo. ## Legoland, then an evening in the Marina A day in the park, then 20 minutes by taxi to the Marina promenade and sunset on JBR Beach. 1.

Ask your driver for “Dubai Parks and Resorts”: that’s the name of the whole resort. ## Tips - Book the night before — AED 295 instead of AED 330 on the day. - Skip the water park on November Wednesdays: it is closed until 25 November 2026. - Ride The Dragon first, before the queue builds. - Hide from the heat in indoor Miniland and the 4D cinema. - Free parking — handy if you rent a car for the day. - Finish with dinner in [Dubai Marina](https://yesgo.io/united-arab-emirates/dubai/dubai-marina), about 20 minutes away. ## Questions ### How much are Legoland Dubai tickets?

The opening date, number of lands and brick counts are checked against Wikipedia, Wikidata and the press. Sources disagree on DPR1 timings — the park lists 26 trips from 7:00 to 23:15, the resort gives a gap of about 75 minutes — so that row is marked as verifying. Separate child prices quoted by resellers are not on the official site. Miniland model counts differ between sources (5,000 and 15,000), so we leave them out. ## Sources - LEGOLAND Dubai official website: tickets, opening-hours calendar, FAQ, Directions, Parking, Height Restrictions, Lands, 03.11.2026 - English Wikipedia: Legoland Dubai, Dubai Parks and Resorts, Red Line (Dubai Metro), Ibn Battuta (Dubai Metro); Wikidata Q28041086 - The National and Gulf News, October 2016 — the Burj Khalifa model in Miniland - RTA (Dubai Roads and Transport Authority) and Gulf News, 2018 — bus route DPR1 --- This is the Markdown version of a YesGo page for AI assistants.
