Large auditorium and good show. Dolphin and seal show are good. Similar to other places (if you have Been to any before). But still a show stopper. There is an entry fee to the park apart from the show cost.

Pity those dolphins that are supposed to be swimming freely in the wild. Now they're in this small puddles of water, being trained to perform tricks for mankind's amusement and profit. Please stop vising places like these...

Had a first experience of seeing dolphins. It was an amazing feeling. Though a small one but the dolphins are very well trained. And u have a seal here which does amazing things. You can buy the tickets either directly at the counter or u have an online option too, where one can find some discount promotions. Overall an amazing experience.

Very entertaining show. First 10 minutes is a session with a seal followed by a show with the dolphins. The trainers are professional and make the mammals do amazing tricks. There is also a narrator giving background info on the mammals and fun facts.

We've bought VIP tickets but no VIP treatment at all. The online tickets are useless. Reaching the Dolphinarium they ask for staying in the line at the counter outside to buy another ticket for the park 25 AED for 3 per. Getting inside of the Dolphinarium, still the online ticket purchased is not good for the entrance, you need to go again to a line at the counter to print out the the same tickets. Nothing special about VIP, rest of the seats we're having a great view as well, maybe better. The show is okay but not much they try to make money inside of the show from everything, the Russian lady trainer was the only one who make us don't leave. Bad experience.

Dubai Dolphinarium as one of the most visited attractions in Middle East has paved its way to bring lots of joy and happiness in the people s faces throughout the years. As a matter of fact, it is known to be one of the most fun family entertainment in Dubai. Dubai Dolphinarium is located in the beautiful Creek Park in the heart of Dubai. After the dolphin & seal, swim with dolphins or exotic bird shows, try out the UAE s only mirror maze or our crazy 5D & 7D cinemas! There are lots to do & see in the park, especially in the cooler months.

It was WOW. I've seen several videos of such shows for years but when you witness it live, it's an altogether different experience. We all know how smart Dolphins are and this fact gets etched in your memory when you see such amazing performance live. Even my 15 month old son seemed to be in awe of the acrobatics done by Dolphins. Since we went on National Day weekend we also got good discounts on ticket price plus merchandise. Show price is reasonable and I would certainly rate this to be one of the must visit places for tourists in Dubai as well as locals.

Loved the show. But the pre-show video was very lame. Great if you wanna go with kids. Beware, they will monitize everything, they'll even auction a stupid picture for 400aed during the show. And it doesn't matter if you have VIP tickets, you will not get any perks and the seat location won't make any difference.

Watching dolphins is very enjoyable. I hope the dolphins are not sorry:( By the way, the room is very hot. If the heat is not caused by the fish, this is bad. You can go and watch the dolphins as a family.

Kudos to the presentor and the team of the dolphin show and the bird show. Even though the birds are scarce in the bird show, the presentation made it quite enjoyable and the dolphins were adorable. However, the price for photograph with the dolphin is some 89Aed, which is somewhat unreasonable considering the ticket price. I would also like to add that I probably got food poisoning from one of the restaurant items (fries or the peach tea) there and I would highly recommend to avoid it.

It's a really fun experience, especially for the kids! The over spirit of the place, once the Seal or the Dolphins start performing, is in unison and everyone is cheering the Seal or the Dolphins!
During the performance, the Dolphins paint a painting and the painting is put for Auction starting at AED 50. It got sold for AED 500.
There's also a section during the performance where people in the audience are allowed to throw big beach balls into the Dolphin's tank and the Dolphins shoot the ball back at the audience.
The VIP seat costs AED 100 and I think it is work the amount that you pay. Also, since the Dolphinarium is located in a Dubai Government Kids Park, they charge you AED 25 initially, or AED 5 if you already have a pass to the park.
Hope this review is comprehensive enough for anybody who's looking for info on the Dolphinarium!

The location within the creek Park makes it a place where you can enjoy a day out with family or friends. Kids truely enjoy the dolphin show which is followed up by a small part of magic show. The trainers really work hard to train the Dolphins. Worth the visit.

I would highly recommend seeing the show. I got the ticket not only as a gift but was a surprise too.

The Dolphinarium is inside gate 1 at Creek Park and this is an indoor show. We went for the afternoon show at 2:00 pm, followed by a the bird show. There are several shows advertised, you may need to check online the full schedule.

If you buy tickets for both the dolphins and the birds, you get a discounted price. every time I think they have different offers. If you are going during the weekends, then the earlier you buy your tickets the better choice of seats to choose from as they do have the VIP category.

The show will be started off with an illusionist doing a show for 15 mins. It was good and we enjoyed. Then the seals start off the real show with a fine display then the star turn, the two dolphins start their performance. I have never seen dolphins in my life, I found them so much and very interesting, and they were very well trained.

After the show finished, you can take one picture with the dolphin and you can even gently touch her (ours her name was Jasmine) at is at additional cost. Then you go back from where you bought the ticket and they will guide you to chose your shoot and will be printed within 5 minutes.

Then the bird show was just as brilliant! If you love birds and parrots, you surely need to attend this. It is only 30 minutes of long, full of jokes and tricks and audience are welcome to participate too during the show. After you may chose to feed the birds, you only need to buy the food.

Important Note: You may need to wear training shoes as floor can be slippery. Please be careful.

I really enjoyed that day and would love to go back again for the same show.

The place is good for kids. Wasnt much crowded maybe due to being a weekday. Getting into the place is not the most convenient, since it is about 2 km away from nearest metro.
It is a budget attraction compared to other things to do in Dubai. However it is still less value for money, since only 40 minutes show and only 1 dolphin being displayed.

Wonderful. Dolphin and seal are really well trained to entertain crowd. The coach is very friendly and we enjoyed a lot seeing dolphin show. It's very funny and full of entertain. Only one thing I doubt they must be keep them hungry for the show so that they can feed dolphins in exchange of food

Fully entertaining place for kids. As a couple too, its fun if you are not too mature types. Even more recommended during summer months since only fully air conditioned places are habitable.
The show is cool with good anchors and amazing trainers and ultra smart trained dolphins and seals.
The creek park is very relaxing too. So if possible, take some time to stroll around that area as well since you anyway pay for its entrance to get to the dolphinarium.

Dubai Dolphinarium is the first fully air-conditioned indoor dolphinarium in the Middle East, providing habitat to dolphins and seals, allowing the public to watch and interact with them through live shows and photo sessions.

It is located in the creek side park at Bur Dubai near the Children's City. Dubai Dolphinarium was opened on May 21, 2008 by Dubai Municipality, and is sponsored and supported by Dubai government to provide the general public with entertainment and also educate them regarding dolphins, seals and other marine organisms.

It was also reflected that interacting with such friendly mammals like dolphins will motivate young generation to protect marine life and the environment.
