Expo City Dubai opens today: Guide to ticket prices, pavilion access

Expo City Dubai has rolled out a one-day Attractions Pass – valid from today (October 1) onwards – that will allow visitors to enjoy all its flagship pavilions for Dh120.

Available online, the attractions pass will initially grant visitors access to the Vision Pavilion and the Women’s Pavilion, as well as Terra – The Sustainability Pavilion and Alif – The Mobility Pavilion. It will eventually evolve to include more pavilions and attractions as they open.

Children aged 12 and under and people of determination can visit the attractions for free, but are required to obtain their complimentary pass at one of Expo City Dubai’s ticketing booths, while everyone can enjoy daily access to the Surreal Water Feature and Al Wasl Plaza, which also open on October 1.

For visitors who are not taking advantage of the Attractions Pass, individual pavilion tickets cost Dh50 per person (free for children aged 12 and under and people of determination).

Here's a guide to two of the pavilions that can be accessed with the Attractions Pass:

>> The Vision Pavilion celebrates the life and leadership of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, with visitors learning about his childhood and the experiences that influenced his bold vision for Dubai and the UAE.

>> A place for everyone, the Women’s Pavilion demonstrates an important principle: when women thrive, humanity thrives. It reaffirms a commitment to gender equality and women’s empowerment, while celebrating women’s achievements and successes, highlighting the challenges they still face, and exploring ways to work together for a more equal world.
