Dubai Parks and Resorts - Bigger and Better in 2025

If there is a destination that promises endless fun for the whole family, Dubai Parks and Resorts is there. This entertainment complex has already boasted Motiongate Dubai, Legoland Dubai and Riverland and just got a huge makeover in 2025.

What's New?

• Motiongate Dubai has unveiled a brand new area dedicated to Dreamworks' Troll, which includes musical rides, character meetings and greetings, and an interactive stage show that children can join.

• Legoland Dubai can now boast a Lego City Rescue Academy where children can role-play firefighters, police officers and pilots mixed with interactive learning.

• The Riverland section has introduced evening boat trips and dining on the river with live family performances. It's a relaxing place after a whole day of fun.

Why Families Love It

You can spend a whole day (or more!) Here and never get bored. There are also shady strollers, water meters and family stations to make the day more comfortable.

Family Fun Near Burj Khalifa

The Burj Khalifa is not only the best building in the world - it is also the center of entertainment complexes filled with fun activities for children and parents. If you intend to visit attractions near Burj Khalifa, you will get many new additions in 2025.

New Attractions for Children

• Sky Park Play Zone: A short walk from Burj Khalifa, this park has inflatable giants, art walls with interactive displays and climbing towers for children between 4 and 12 years. Admission is free, and shaded seats are offered for parents to sit in.

• Downtown Dubai Family Tram: An outdoor tram now operates loops in downtown Dubai. Children enjoy the brief walk, and it's a pleasant way to travel between attractions such as Dubai Opera Garden and Souk Al Bahar.

• Kidzania 2.0 (Inside Dubai's Mall): The ever-popular Kidzania has received a facelift with AI games and virtual reality areas so that children can experience future professions, such as becoming astronauts, robotics experts or even drone operators.

• Light Show: Every night, Burj Khalifa features a new live-animated LED light show specifically for children's flying unicorns to space adventures. It is an unpacked conclusion for the day and is free to view.

Planning Tips

Before your visit, be sure to buy Burj Khalifa Dubai tickets in advance. The sooner you visit (especially in the morning), the less busy it will be, and you will have queues, and lower the temperature, the more comfortable it will be.

Indoor Fun on Hot Days

Dubai Sunshine is wonderful, but on hot days, the indoor play area is a lifesaver - for children, that's it. Fortunately, the city is full of cold, air-conditioned places where families can play, learn and discover.

Olioli® Children's Museum - Now With Two New Zones

This Interactive Game Museum in Al Quoz is the favorite of parents, and it got even better. In 2025, Olioli revealed:

• Future Tech Lab: Where children can create small robots and program them to perform tasks.

• AdventureDome: A soft climbing area with strings, tunnels and nets designed for 3 to 10 years.

Being a team-based learning center, Olioli is engaging and educational at the same time.

Chillout Ice Lounge - A Frozen Wonderland

Need a complete scenario change? Bring the kids to Chillout Ice Lounge at Times Square Center, where everything - including furniture - is built of ice! With a temperature of -6 ° C, they will be able to drink hot chocolate while looking at light ice statues. Jackets and gloves are available, so you can simply get in and enjoy the cold.

PlayDxb - VR Fun inside Dubai Mall

Just a few minutes from Burj Khalifa, PlayDxB provides virtual reality entertainment for all ages. New offers include:

• VR waterslides that are almost indistinguishable from the real thing

• Dino Safari, where children can "drive" by a jungle full of realistic dinosaurs

• Lounges for parents with snacks and views of play areas

Splash and play

Dubai's heat requires fun, and 2025 will bring even more aquatic adventures to children and parents.

Jungle Bay - Perfect for Young Children

Near the JBR, Jungle Bay is a cozy water park by the surf, with wave pools, mini slides and a lazy river. It is ideal for toddlers and younger children who seek to play smoothly.

Aquafun - Giant Inflatable Fun

Aquafun, the floating route of Burj Al Arab, just expanded! With additional slides and climbing areas, it is ideal for active children (and fearless parents as well). Safety jackets and adult supervision are included, so everything is safe.

A Tip That Saves Money

Certain hotels now offer Dubai parks and resorts or water park admission with reservations - excellent value for families.

Summing Up

Dubai continues to define the highest bar for family fun - and 2025 is no different. Be it discovering the thrill of Dubai's parks and resorts, experiencing an interactive piece near Burj Khalifa or splashing into water play areas, there is something for all ages and tastes here.

So make a bag, set aside these tickets for Burj Khalifa Dubai, and get ready to make some memories that will last a lifetime. With the new activities of so many children in Dubai, your family holiday will be the one to remember.
