Updated Paid Parking Hours

During Ramadan, public parking across Dubai will operate with a split schedule:

Monday to Saturday:

  • Morning Hours: 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM
  • Evening Hours: 8:00 PM – Midnight

Free Parking Times:

  • Between 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM (Monday to Saturday)
  • Sundays remain completely free all day, as usual.

Multi-Level Parking:

Parking garages in multi-level parking buildings will remain accessible 24/7 with standard charges applied.

Staying On Top Of The Road

To avoid any surprises, it’s a good idea to:

  • Check parking zones using the RTA app to confirm specific locations and fees.
  • Plan your trips around free parking hours to maximise savings.
    Be mindful of enforcement times to avoid fines.

These paid parking adjusted timings aim to provide more flexibility and convenience for everyone to enjoy the Holy Month of Ramadan. Whether you’re heading to a family gathering, a night market, or a late-night prayer, these changes help make city travel easier during this spiritual time.

Ramadan Mubarak to all!
