Dubai's vibrant spirit thrives throughout the holy month of Ramadan. But with adjusted business hours, navigating parking can become a challenge. Auto Trader UAE equips you with a comprehensive guide to free parking options and paid parking hours during Ramadan in Dubai.
Shorter Paid Parking Hours:
During Ramadan, Dubai implements revised paid parking schedules across most public parking zones. Here's what you need to know:

- Free Parking Window: Enjoy free parking between 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM, coinciding with the Iftar period.
Exceptions and Additional Considerations:
- TECOM Parking Zone (F): Paid parking in TECOM Zone (F) usually applies only from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM throughout Ramadan.
- Multi-Storey Car Parks: Multi-storey car parks typically operate with 24/7 paid parking schedules even during Ramadan.
- Always Check Signage: While this guide provides a general overview, it's crucial to check individual parking zone signage for specific timings and regulations.
Maximizing Free Parking Opportunities:
Here are some tips to leverage free parking options during Ramadan:
- Plan Your Errands: Schedule errands and outings during the free parking window (6:00 PM to 8:00 PM) to avoid parking fees.
