A two-week fixture combining a WTA 1000 and an ATP 500 at the compact Dubai Duty Free Tennis Stadium in the Garhoud district. The venue is small enough that every seat is a good one, and the crowd is a mix of Gulf corporate hospitality, well-heeled expats and travelling fans. February weather is the tour's most reliable: dry, warm and windless for night sessions.

How to attend

Open to the public. Tickets sell through the official site and Platinumlist, with prices low by tour standards given the field. Because there is essentially one show court, almost every ticket guarantees a seat for the featured matches; early-round sessions are cheapest and evening sessions are cooler and busier. The stadium is a short taxi ride from Dubai Airport or a walk from GGICO metro station.

Buy tickets

Insider tip

The venue is a single show court with roughly 5,000 seats, so even the cheapest ticket puts you closer to a top-ten player than a mid-tier seat at any Grand Slam.
