Dubai Miracle Garden is back in bloom, and this year, there’s more than just vibrant petals to look forward to. Residents in the UAE now get 30 per cent off entry tickets, and if it happens to be your birthday, you can stroll in without spending a dirham. Yes, really. All you need is proof of ID, and the day is yours to wander among millions of flowers. For non-residents, tickets remain at AED105, but UAE residents can now pay AED73.5 instead. That’s a decent saving, especially if you’ve got family in tow.

The management has also adjusted children’s pricing, which makes life a little easier for parents. This season, kids between three and 13 years old can enter for AED80, down from AED85 last year. If your child has an Emirates ID, the ticket price drops further to AED52.5. Children under three? Free, of course. And in line with Dubai’s wider inclusivity push, people of determination also enjoy complimentary access, with their companions paying just AED50.
To be fair, for a family day out in one of Dubai’s most photogenic spots, those figures aren’t bad. After all, you’re not just walking into a park—you’re stepping into what is essentially a living art installation.
Freebies Beyond Flowers
Truth be told, it’s the little extras that make a visit more memorable. This year, every visitor also receives a professionally printed picture at no cost. Photographers in bright green T-shirts roam the gardens snapping away. You get a code, pop it into one of the booths, and voila, your keepsake is ready. A small touch, but one that feels surprisingly thoughtful in a city where not much comes for free.
And then there’s the birthday perk. Imagine celebrating with friends or family, surrounded by more than 150 million blooms, without paying a dirham. It’s a sweet gesture, and it might just tempt people who’ve been before to return for the occasion.
What Makes Dubai Miracle Garden, Well, A Miracle
Located in Al Barsha South 3, the garden is open from 9 am to 11 pm on weekdays and until midnight on weekends. But this isn’t your average stroll among rose bushes. The park reinvents itself every season with new 50-plus floral displays. Past highlights have included an Emirates A380 made entirely of flowers and Disney characters recreated in blooms.
Let’s face it, this is one of those spots that continues to amaze even if you’ve visited before. There’s always a new installation to gawk at or a fresh twist on a fan-favourite display. And yes, it’s Instagram gold; there’s a reason you’ve probably seen it flood your feed every winter.

Why Now’s The Time To Go
With discounted tickets, free birthday entry, and thoughtful add-ons, this season of Dubai Miracle Garden feels a little more accessible. It’s still a spectacle, still over the top in the best way, but now there are more reasons to actually go rather than just scroll through your friend’s pictures.
So, if you’re a resident, take advantage of the discount. If it’s your birthday, grab that free entry. And if you simply want a dose of colour and whimsy in your week, well, you know where to head.
