About this experience
The Museum of the Future is the silver torus on Sheikh Zayed Road, its facade covered in Arabic calligraphy that doubles as the building's windows. Inside, the museum is staged as a journey to the year 2071 rather than a conventional gallery.
Floors cover an orbiting space station, a restored and rewilded Amazon, a wellbeing sanctuary built around the senses, and a near-future technology floor. A lower level, Future Heroes, is an open play space for children. Sessions are timed and the museum regularly sells out, so booking ahead matters more here than at most Dubai attractions. Allow 90 minutes to two hours.
