Forget quiet game nights at home, Dubai has turned Monopoly into a real-life adventure! The iconic board game, known for fierce family feuds and questionable banking skills, now has a bold new twist at Vida Dubai Mall. This isn’t your average sit-and-roll experience; it’s a fully immersive, laugh-out-loud, oversized Monopoly party where you become part of the action.

The Dubai Monopoly Experience keeps the classic board at the centre of the fun but adds a sprinkle of theatre and a dash of chaos. Players can meet and mingle with larger-than-life characters like the ever-dapper Mr. Monopoly himself. He’s your friendly tour guide, but don’t get too comfy—because the sharp-eyed Policeman is also on patrol. Land in the wrong spot, and you might find yourself in the dreaded jail cell!
This live-action twist turns every dice roll into a mini-drama, with surprises waiting at every turn. Expect interactive moments, photo ops with oversized tokens, and lots of playful banter with the game’s characters. It’s not just about buying Mayfair anymore; it’s about surviving the Monopoly madness with your sense of humour intact.
When And Where To Play?

You can join the Monopoly mayhem at Vida Dubai Mall every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, with two thrilling time slots to choose from, 5:00 pm or 8:00 pm. Each session runs for two hours, which is plenty of time to make deals, dodge jail, and fight for your favourite properties.
Tickets are available for March and April, and prices start at AED220 for groups of six or more. If you prefer to keep your inner circle small, individual tickets go for AED270. Every player gets a complimentary welcome drink, so you can toast your fortune (or drown your financial sorrows).
Upgrade Your Game Night
If you fancy adding a foodie twist to your Monopoly mission, you can upgrade your ticket to include dinner. During Ramadan, this means a delicious Iftar spread, and after Ramadan, it switches to a tempting set menu. This tasty upgrade costs AED470, making it a perfect night out for game-loving foodies.
Why This Experience Is A Must-Do
