Museum of the Future
Temporarily closed: the Museum of the Future closed on 1 September 2026 for a revamp and is due to reopen in early 2027. You can still see and photograph the building from outside.
The silver torus wrapped in Arabic calligraphy on Sheikh Zayed Road is one of Dubai’s most photographed buildings. Even while the exhibitions are closed, it is a striking photo stop, especially when it is lit up after dark.
Before the closure, timed tickets cost AED 169 and a visit took 2–3 hours. New prices and opening dates for 2027 have not been announced yet; we will update this page when they are.
