Times Square Center | Dubai

Times Square Center is a compact, family-friendly mall on Sheikh Zayed Road in Al Quoz, run by the Sharaf Group. It is calmer than Dubai's mega-malls, which makes it an easy pick for a quick shop, an afternoon of kids' activities or a relaxed family outing. Its headline attraction is the AHQ Activity Zone at Adventure HQ, with an indoor rock-climbing wall and an aerial adventure course. RoboLand is an interactive robot museum and play space for children, Picnic Square is a leafy food court in a green-certified building, and the Sharaf DG megastore takes up part of the first floor. On some weekends the mall also hosts markets such as Ripe Market and Baby Bazaar. The mall is open daily from 10 AM to 10 PM and entry is free, with the first three hours of parking free too. Activities like climbing and RoboLand are ticketed separately, so check prices, hours and weekend market dates on the official website before you go.
