SAW Maze – A New Level of Horror
Headlining this year’s Halloween attractions is the much-anticipated SAW Maze.

The tension escalates with every turn, challenging even the bravest visitors to escape his terrifying game. Parental guidance is strongly advised for this harrowing experience.

A Halloween Playground of Thrills
MOTIONGATE™ Dubai has transformed into a Halloween haven, offering a variety of spooky shows and immersive experiences. A highlight is The Vampire Circus, an eerie performance led by a sinister vampire ringleader. Taking place at the Hollywood Theatre, the show blends dark dance routines, haunting circus acts, and breathtaking aerial displays, providing a truly mesmerising spectacle.

No Halloween celebration is complete without MOTIONGATE™ Dubai’s Fright Nights Parade. Taking place on select nights under the eerie twilight, iconic horror characters and fearsome floats parade through Studio Central, accompanied by intense music and an electric atmosphere.
