Expo City Dubai has recently made a significant announcement that has captured the attention of both residents and tourists alike. This renowned entertainment hub in the heart of Dubai is temporarily closing not one, but two of its beloved Attractions.

Through an official statement posted on social media, specifically on X (formerly known as Twitter), Expo City conveyed the news that two of its iconic features, namely “Garden in the Sky” and “Rashid’s Playground,” are scheduled for a temporary hiatus starting from October 1, 2023. Unfortunately, the announcement did not specify a definite date for the reopening of these attractions, leaving eager patrons in anticipation.

This development might bring a sense of déjà vu to those who closely follow Expo City Dubai’s activities, as earlier this year, in May, they had already temporarily closed the “Garden in the Sky” for essential maintenance work. Fortunately, they managed to successfully conclude the maintenance and welcomed visitors back at the beginning of August. The “Garden in the Sky” is more than just a mere attraction; it’s a marvel that offers visitors a breathtaking experience. As a rotating observation tower, it gracefully lifts its passengers 55 meters above the ground, treating them to unparalleled panoramic views of the city. This lofty vantage point boasts a lush, tree-lined upper deck, while the base of the tower illuminates the night with a captivating display of lights, adding a touch of enchantment to Dubai’s skyline.

On the other hand, “Rashid’s Playground” at Jubilee Park is a vibrant and imaginative space that caters to children’s boundless enthusiasm and creativity. This ocean-themed adventure playground is a kaleidoscope of colors and excitement, featuring whimsical elements like sharks mounted on springs, playful whale slides, miniature ocean liners, and an interactive 3D maze model that ignites young minds with wonder.

While the Temporary Closure of these two attractions might be disappointing news for many, it’s crucial to remember that Expo City Dubai remains committed to maintaining the highest standards of safety and ensuring that its visitors have an exceptional and secure experience. So, as we eagerly await the reopening of “Garden in the Sky” and “Rashid’s Playground,” let’s embrace this time as an opportunity to look forward to an even more thrilling and unforgettable experience when these cherished attractions return to their full glory. In the meantime, Dubai offers an abundance of other exciting activities and attractions to explore, ensuring that the spirit of adventure and discovery lives on in this vibrant city.
