Here's all you need to know about the VR Park, one of the most exciting theme parks in Dubai.

How much do VR Park tickets cost?

VR Park ticket prices depend on the types of experiences you want to do at VR Park, as well as how many of them. The Pay and Play single-day tickets range from AED 200 (US$55) all the way up to AED 500 (US$135).

These prepaid cards include credits that can be used to play games and try VR experiences. The more money you put on your Pay and Play card, the more rides and games you can try. There are also occasionally special deals and combos available, involving other attractions in the Dubai Mall.

What discounts are available?

Discounts are not available for single-day tickets. However, if you book a combination ticket, you will save a considerable amount compared to if you purchased both of the tickets separately.

Should you book in advance?

Booking your VR Park tickets in advance is always a good idea, especially if you want to guarantee your entry at your preferred time. It is also recommended to buy the tickets online in advance for faster admission upon arrival.

VR Park is very popular with tourists and can occasionally reach full capacity. Therefore, booking ahead of time decreases the chance of losing out on tickets due to high demand during peak seasons.

What will you do there?
