Celebrating International Museum Day, they are offering free entry to all flagship pavilions on 19 May.

Among the planned activities, Terra will screen climate-focused films in collaboration with the Environment Agency – Abu Dhabi, as well as host informative tours, storytelling sessions, physical theatre workshops and a ‘tinker table’ for play-based learning.
At Alif, inquisitive minds can build robot hands in a Lego workshop to learn about motors, sensors, and the basic principles of engineering, while visitors of all ages can get involved in craft activities at the Women’s and Vision Pavilions.
Expo City Dubai, which is set to host the UN Climate Conference COP28 later this year, is a blueprint for sustainable urban planning and is committed to protecting the environment, including through programmes that inspire visitors to play a role in the planet’s preservation.
