Dubai Safari Park will open its eighth season on October 12 2026, launching its first-ever “Wildest Opening Week” from October 12 to 18 to coincide with the schools’ mid-term break.

The week-long celebration will feature family-focused activities built around the season’s “Live More Wild Life” theme, highlighting the park’s core pillars of conservation, education and entertainment. A key attraction will be the “Little Explorers’ Base Camp”, offering children safari face painting, temporary tattoos, clay modelling, arts and crafts, lawn games and safari-themed inflatables.

Throughout Season 8, visitors can explore six themed zones and a range of wildlife experiences. These include the Arabian Desert Safari, included with all park tickets, and the Explorer Safari Tour, which provides close-up views of lions, giraffes and rhinos in open-range habitats.

Premium experiences will include King of Safari, Behind the Scenes, Dine in the Wild and Jungle Capture, offering private tours, exclusive access and dining experiences near wildlife.

The park will also host live presentations including Bird’s Kingdom, Echoes of the Wild and Birds of Prey, combining entertainment with insights into animal behaviour and conservation.

The new season aims to give families opportunities to connect with nature while creating educational and memorable wildlife experiences. -TradeArabia News Service
