Dubai Frame entry ticket
Overview
The Dubai Frame is exactly what it sounds like: a giant golden picture frame, 150 metres tall and about 95 metres wide, standing in Zabeel Park since 2018. It's a cheaper, quicker alternative to the Burj Khalifa, and a fun one.
Start in the Dubai Past Gallery, where multimedia displays trace the city's journey from fishing village to global city. Then a lift takes you up 48 floors in 75 seconds to the Sky Deck, the bridge across the top of the frame.
Part of the floor is glass, so you can look straight down about 150 metres. From one side you see the older districts of Deira, Karama and the Creek; from the other, the towers of Sheikh Zayed Road and Downtown. On the way out, the Dubai Future Gallery imagines the city 50 years from now.
Combine it with a stroll in Zabeel Park or a visit to the old city nearby.

Frequently asked questions
Only part of the bridge is glass, so you can walk around it if you prefer. Most visitors enjoy stepping onto it for photos.
The Burj Khalifa is far higher and the classic view. The Frame is cheaper, less busy and shows old and new Dubai side by side. Many visitors do both.
