- THE BAD

Insider Tips
-
- During summers, try and reach the park after sunset. It serves two purposes, one, you can escape the heat, and two, there’s something magical about being in the park after dusk.
-
- As you would expect, weekends at the LEGOLAND Dubai are pretty crowded. We would recommend going in during weekdays to skip the crowd.
-
- Outside food is not allowed, except for baby food. So pack accordingly.
-
- There’s a short walk from where you park your car to the entrance of the park. Avoid high heels or uncomfortable footwear because you’ll be walking around a lot!
-
- Bring water bottles aplenty. It will get pretty hot and you’ll need to stay hydrated at all times.
- A combo pass for LEGOLAND Dubai and LEGOLAND Water Park is a great way to money and experience both parks together.
