The Museum of the Future in Dubai offers an excellent glimpse into life 50 years from now, setting itself apart from traditional museums that focus on art and history. Spread across seven floors with five accessible chapters, it explores themes like climate change, health, space travel, and more through engaging exhibits. This innovative attraction in the United Arab Emirates invites you to think about tomorrow’s possibilities today.

Step through five themed floors exploring the future of space, health, and technology inside a 77-meter-tall architectural landmark on Sheikh Zayed Road.

Board the OSS Hope space station set in 2071, walk through Al Waha's immersive rainforest environment, and test hands-on exhibits at Futures Lab.

Upgrade to the Pioneer Pass for flexible entry, skip-the-line access, and AED 50 to spend at the lobby retail shop.

The museum's facade has no windows in the traditional sense, the Arabic calligraphy covering the exterior is carved directly into the steel structure as load-bearing openings.

One child under 12 enters free with every adult ticket ; book only the adult tickets and collect the child's pass at the ticketing desk with a valid photo ID.

Inside a building with no straight lines

The Museum of the Future opened on Sheikh Zayed Road in February 2022. Its torus-shaped exterior is wrapped in three bands of Arabic poetry by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, carved as structural openings through the steel facade. The 14-floor structure has no internal pillars. Set aside 2 to 3 hours for a thorough visit across all floors.

Five floors, five visions of the future

Your visit moves through five distinct themed worlds. On the OSS Hope floor, you board a space station orbiting Earth in the year 2071. You play the role of an arriving researcher, moving through modules that include a biodiversity vault, immersive virtual reality chambers, and an observation deck overlooking a simulated Earth below.

Al Waha places you inside a recreated 2071 rainforest environment designed around future wellness and human connection with nature. Tomorrow Today is a dedicated children's wing with interactive learning stations built around future cities, food systems, and technology. At Futures Lab, you interact with real-world prototypes across energy, mobility, and urban design. The Heal Institute explores the future of human health through walk-through simulations on augmentation and longevity. The deepest floor, The Abyss, addresses long-term existential questions through an immersive dark experience focused on climate and survival.

The lobby retail shop stocks exclusive MOTF merchandise and future-focused products — your Pioneer Pass includes AED 50 credit to spend here.
