To ensure a smooth metro journey and avoid extra waiting, please purchase a Nol Card in advance through the ticket machines and in-person ticket counters in all stations to use the metro before entering through the barriers. Both cash and cards are accepted.
GITEX GLOBAL grew so much that we added additional parking options to reach the event with more ease. Visitors can now park their vehicles in the following parking lots and use the metro to reach the Dubai World Trade Center station:
Parking your car
After parking your car at these locations, use the nearby Metro station to easily reach the event.
PARK YOUR CAR at these Dubai Metro Stations to TAKE THE TRAIN
PARK YOUR CAR to take free dedicated shuttle buses
Visitors can park their vehicles in the parking lot of the Dubai Mall Zabeel Extension, and take the exclusively arranged shuttle buses for pick-up and drop-off (from Dubai Mall parking to DWTC and back).
Metered private taxis and on-demand transport services are growing in popularity and are readily available around Dubai. If you already have a Careem or Uber app from another country, the same app can be used to book your ride in Dubai. If you are unfamiliar with Careem or Uber, both companies offer downloadable apps for both Android and iOS platforms.
Also, use Careem Code: GITEX2022 to get 20% off 2 rides capped at AED 20 each.
