USEFUL INFO

By metro

Dubai’s metro system is a budget-friendly, clean and air-conditioned way to travel around the emirate. There are two lines: the Red Line runs the length of Dubai, connecting to many significant landmarks along the way, while the Green Line primarily serves “old” Dubai, including the creek area and the souks of Bur Dubai and Deira. Tram service, known as the Orange Line, provides dedicated access to points around Dubai Marina. View metro journey planner.

METRO PARK & RIDE

Car parking facilities are available on the Red Line at Rashidiya (2,700 Spaces) and Nakheel Harbour & Towers (3,000 spaces), and on the Green Line at Etisalat (3,000 car park spaces).

Car Parking

Parking at Dubai World Trade Centre


There are very few parking options around the venue, so wherever possible we would strongly recommend using one of the above options to avoid long queues.

Car Parks 1A, 1B & 1C are free of charge and located off 312th Road, close to the Convention Gate / Novotel entrance, as well as additional parking near the Za’abeel Hall entrance.
There are two Multi-Storey Car Parks which have a nominal parking fee per hour and are located behind Sheikh Rashid Hall Sheikh Maktoum Hall and also next to Sheikh Rashid Tower (close to Hall 1).

Please note: Vehicles are not allowed to park overnight.
Any vehicle left overnight will incur a penalty fee and DWTC reserves the right to remove all vehicles remaining in the car park after the permitted 24-hour period. Vehicles are not allowed to park within the ‘no parking zones’ and DWTC reserves the right to remove any vehicles that are parked incorrectly or causing obstruction to other road users. Violators will be charged a daily fee plus administration fees. A parking token is issued on arrival and must be submitted for payment on departure. A lost parking token will be charged in addition to the respective hourly parking charges and is not refundable.
