Global Village Season 31 opened on 14 October 2026 and runs to May 2027. Entry on the official site is AED 25 from Monday to Thursday and AED 30 on any day, VAT included (checked 30 October 2026). There is no child price: children aged 3 and over pay the same as adults.

Children under 3, visitors over 65 and people of determination with one companion enter free, with ID. No reseller beats the AED 25 weekday price. Klook and Headout save AED 3 on the AED 30 Any Day ticket.

Global Village ticket prices: official vs resellers

Prices are per person and include 5 percent VAT. Reseller prices change, so treat the table further down this page as the live source.

Ticket Official Cheapest reseller Who
Weekday entry (Monday to Thursday, not public holidays) AED 25 AED 25 Klook, Headout, GetYourGuide (tie)
Any Day entry (every day, public holidays included) AED 30 AED 27 Klook, Headout

Tiqets sells the Any Day ticket at AED 30, level with the official site. Headout also lists Any Day entry at AED 25 per person when you book two or more tickets. That price carries a “Great UAE Getaway” label saying it ends on 11 November, so confirm what the page shows when you pay.

Season 31 dates

Season 31 opened on Wednesday 14 October 2026, with gates opening at 6pm on the first night. The park gives the end as May 2027 and has not named a last day. Its terms also reserve the right to change the season dates, so check the official site before a trip in April or May.

Opening hours by day

Day Hours
Sunday to Wednesday 16:00 to 00:00
Thursday to Saturday and public holidays 16:00 to 01:00

Entry gates close 30 minutes before closing time. Tuesdays, except public holidays, are reserved for ladies, families (men included) and couples, so groups of men on their own should pick another day. The park also declares some public holidays as family days and posts them on its website, app and social channels.

Weekday or Any Day ticket

The Weekday ticket gives one entry from Monday to Thursday and is not valid on public holidays. The Any Day ticket is valid on every day of the season, public holidays included. The difference is AED 5 per person, or AED 20 for a family of four with two children aged 3 and over.

Sunday is the day to watch. Last season the weekday price ran from Sunday to Thursday. Khaleej Times reported on 8 October 2026 that Sunday now takes the weekend price, and the park’s terms say Monday to Thursday. Resellers have not caught up everywhere. Klook and Headout label their AED 25 ticket Sunday to Thursday, and Klook’s listing says it is valid on Sundays. We could not confirm that the gate scans those vouchers on a Sunday.

If you are going on a Sunday, buy an Any Day ticket: AED 27 on Klook or Headout, AED 30 on the official site. The park’s terms let you upgrade a Weekday ticket to Any Day at a ticketing booth by paying the difference. They do not say whether that covers reseller vouchers.

Klook adds its own limits to the weekday ticket. Its terms exclude 1 and 2 December, 15 December to 9 January and the Eid holidays. Read the terms on any reseller voucher before you rely on a date.

Free entry, children and seniors

  • Children under 3: free. The park may ask for ID.
  • Children 3 and over: full price. The official site lists no child rate.
  • Visitors over 65: free, with ID.
  • People of determination: free with a valid ID card, plus one companion.
  • Wristbands: parents can ask for a free child wristband at the ticketing booths and information kiosks.

Where to buy: official, resellers or the gate

The official site and the Global Village Dubai app sell both tickets at AED 25 and AED 30. Online tickets arrive by email as a PDF with a QR code. The park’s terms list the same two prices at the gate booths, so buying ahead on the official site saves queue time, not money. Official tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable.

Resellers matter for the AED 3 saving on Any Day and for validity windows. On 30 October, Klook sold Global Village vouchers valid only to 27 November 2026, while Headout’s booking calendar ran to 12 May 2027. If you are visiting from December onwards, check the last bookable date before you plan around a Klook price. All the reseller listings we read are non-refundable.

Gulf News warned in October that fake ticket sites appear every season. Buy from the park’s own channels or from a seller you know. See our Klook vs GetYourGuide vs Tiqets vs Headout comparison for how the main sellers differ.

Klook also sells bundles that pair an Any Day ticket with a Miracle Garden ticket, at AED 94 and AED 101 on its two listing pages. Official prices for the two come to AED 135 (30 plus 105). Those vouchers cover dates into November only. Our Dubai Miracle Garden guide covers that side of the trip.

What the ticket does not include

The entry ticket covers the park, the country pavilions, the shows and the kids’ theatre. The park lists 29 pavilions, including Oman and Qatar as new additions, and more than 200 shows a day.

Ride credits, events and WonderPass attractions are sold separately. Rides on the park’s site are priced in points. Walk-through attractions such as The Dragon Kingdom have their own ticket.

Food and drink from outside the park is not allowed. The park asks visitors to dress modestly, bans pets, requires a permit for filming and does not allow Segways, scooters, bicycles, hoverboards, skateboards or roller skates.

Parking and getting there

Parking can cost more than the ticket, so it belongs in the budget.

Parking Cost
P1, P3 (about 400 m from the Gate of the World) and P5 (about 450 m) Free
P7 to P11 (about 1 km from the Cultural Gate) Free on weekends, public holidays and busy days only; free shuttle, or a rickshaw from AED 10
Paid Parking 2 (about 350 m from the Happiness Gate) AED 75 per day
Paid Parking AED 120 per day
VIP Parking AED 200 per day

Bus routes 102, 103, 104 and 106 serve the park from Dubai metro and bus stations. The park says the service usually runs from about 3:15pm to 11:15pm.

How to book it cheapest

  1. Pick a Monday, Wednesday or Thursday if your group can. The AED 25 Weekday ticket is the cheapest entry, and every seller that lists it charges the same.
  2. Buy the AED 25 ticket from the official site or app, or from any listed reseller. There is no reseller discount to chase.
  3. For a Friday, Saturday, Sunday or public holiday, compare the Any Day price: AED 27 on Klook and Headout, AED 30 on the official site and Tiqets.
  4. Check the last bookable date on the reseller page before you buy for a visit after November.
  5. Skip a Sunday on a Weekday voucher unless the seller confirms it. Use an Any Day ticket instead.
  6. Park free in P1, P3 or P5 if you arrive early, and keep the paid zones for busy nights.
  7. Do not buy a Go City pass for this alone. Global Village is on the Explorer and All-Inclusive passes at a reference price of about AED 25, so a pass only works across many attractions. Test your own plan in the Go City pass calculator or read whether the pass is worth it.
