About Green Planet
One of Dubai’s most popular attractions for residents and tourists, the Green Planet is a magnificent four-story biodome located in City Walk, Dubai. Counted as one of the most brilliantly engineered biodomes in the world, the canopy stands at an astonishing height of 30 metres above the ground and forms the roof of the rainforest, providing a panoramic view across the rainforest ecosystem.
The Green Planet was conceptualized to bring together nature and the science of nature, alongside visitor attractions and experiences to help raise awareness of the world’s most diverse ecosystems. The attraction is home to animals from across the globe, from the cute to the deadly.
Visiting The Green Planet is a great educational experience for adults and kids alike and there are multiple experiences to help get the most from a visit, including school trips, tropical thunderstorms, birthday parties or even becoming ‘Zookeeper for the day’ with the support of experts in the field. There are several rainforest-themed shopping and dining centres for visitors.
Single day tickets to the venue are priced at AED 140 upon arrival, or AED 125 when purchasing online for adults. For children, tickets cost AED 120 on arrival, or AED 110 when booking through the website.
