Dubai Sports World 2025 is back, turning the summer heat into a haven for sports, fitness, and family fun—all under one roof.
From August 3 to September 2, the Dubai World Trade Centre transforms into the Middle East’s largest indoor sporting venue, welcoming athletes of all ages and skill levels. Open daily from 8 AM to midnight, the fully air-conditioned space features courts, pitches, training zones, and community activations designed to keep Dubai moving even in peak summer.
This year introduces exciting new highlights, including the official debut of pickleball on purpose-built courts and expanded padel sessions, featuring dedicated women’s play hours. The DSW Summer League kicks off on August 23, offering inter-company competitions across cricket, football, volleyball, basketball, and badminton. Adding to the excitement is the DSW Run IN, Dubai’s inaugural indoor half-marathon staged entirely within DWTC halls, complete with professional timing and spectator zones.
Spanning over 25,000 square meters across Za’abeel Halls 2 to 6, DSW 2025 boasts 40+ courts and fields for football, basketball, badminton, cricket, tennis, volleyball, table tennis, teqball, and more. A fully equipped, free community gym provides cardio, strength, and functional training zones powered by top fitness brands. Families can enjoy Dubai Kids World, featuring trampolines, inflatables, arcade games, and supervised activities, making it a destination for all ages.
DSW emphasizes skill-building and community access. Leading academies such as Galaxy Blues Football and Taal Basketball offer coaching programs, while partnerships with LaLiga Academy and IFA deliver world-class youth training. Inclusivity remains a priority, with free programs for delivery workers, municipal employees, people of determination, and senior citizens, ensuring sport is accessible to everyone.
Visitors can also enjoy on-site cafes, smoothie bars, and healthy eateries, offering post-workout snacks, coffee, and light meals. With plenty of seating, lounge areas, and spectator zones, the event encourages both activity and socializing.
Dubai Sports World has evolved into more than an indoor sporting event—it’s a seasonal lifestyle movement, blending competition, community, and culture. With easy metro access via DWTC station, ample parking, and a seamless mobile app for court bookings, DSW 2025 makes staying active through the summer easier than ever.
Whether you’re an athlete, parent, or just looking to try something new, this is where Dubai plays when the temperatures soar.
