SUNNY KESHARI / GoogleMotiongate Dubai
A Hollywood-themed park off Sheikh Zayed Road with a DreamWorks zone and Hollywood-themed areas, a family favorite that reviewers say is showing its age.
Why people come to Motiongate Dubai
The standout area for younger children, named repeatedly across reviews.
Roller coasters aimed at older kids and adults.
Praised consistently even by otherwise critical reviewers.
Makes more sense than single-day tickets for residents who visit repeatedly.
The Scene
The DreamWorks zone is repeatedly named as the highlight for younger children, while several roller coasters are height-dependent and aimed at older kids and adults. Staff are consistently described as friendly, but food quality is criticized across multiple reviews.
Getting Around
The park is visible off Sheikh Zayed Road. One reviewer who visits often said an annual pass makes sense for residents given repeat trips.
Local Tips
Watch for locker fees and total ticket cost, which can climb fast for a family. One reviewer trying to claim an airline-partner discount was asked for a physical boarding pass rather than a digital one, so bring physical documentation for any promo. Confirm the park is currently open before heading over.
About Motiongate Dubai
Motiongate Dubai delivers a full day of themed rides, and many visitors, especially families drawn to the DreamWorks zone, call it one of the best theme parks in the city. Others found the park dated and in need of repair, and pricing drew sharp complaints, including a nearly 2,000 AED family outing and a single small locker costing 45 AED. One recent reviewer also asked whether the park's listing showing as temporarily closed was accurate, so current operating status is worth confirming before a visit.
