Tips For Your Visit
OliOli is suitable for adults and children of all ages.
You can also host your child’s party at OliOli too. You can view their Party Packages here.
An online ticket booking is required prior to your arrival, as OliOli operate at a reduced capacity during the COVID-19 pandemic.
They also test their staff regularly and disinfect all of their play areas every 2 hours.
All adults and children will need to bring their own socks, otherwise you can buy a pair at reception upon arrival.
There are bathrooms and nappy changing facilities onsite and there is a lift for prams and wheelchairs to access the play areas on 2nd level.
Your child might get wet in their Water Gallery play area, so best to bring a spare change of clothes too!
The café inside OliOli is called La Petite Treehouse Café and any outside food for your children, must be consumed there.
There is a dedicated stroller area near reception and adults must always supervise their own children.
There are also some colourful stairs that go up to Level 2, should you not wish to take the lift.
What To Expect
The Air Gallery is one of the first play areas to the right once you enter OliOli.
The Water Gallery is immediately opposite the entrance of OliOli and we saw lots of children getting quite wet, so best to bring a spare change of clothes.
Toshi’s Nets is a great room for energetic children, as children can spend quite a lot of time climbing inside the colourful nets suspended from the ceiling.
Tom’s favourite area would have been the Toddler Area on level 2, where he loved all of the imaginative play toys and books.
The Forts & Dens area was targeted towards older children, so Tom will no doubt enjoy this area once he’s a bit older.
Another area Tom really enjoyed at OliOli was the Cars and Ramps play area on Level 2, where children build their own Lego cars and watch them fly on the dedicated car ramps!
The Light Ball Orchestra was lots of fun for children, where the large balls change colour and omit different sounds, forming an orchestra of music!
Finally the Sketch Aquarium is where children can observe the power of their creative imagination through large touch screens and fun kids’ activities.
What's Unique
OliOli is Dubai’s first experiential children’s play museum.
The Verdict
Tom really loved his time at OliOli, so we could have easily stayed there for longer than 2 hours!
We really enjoyed spending quality family time, whilst watching Tom explore all of the colourful sensory areas.
OliOli is suitable for children of all ages, as there is something for everyone to enjoy at this interactive play museum!
