Where the stadium is
Maktoum Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Stadium is in Al Mamzar, behind Century Mall and opposite the Dubai International Bowling Centre. Shabab Al Ahli Dubai FC gives the stadium’s capacity as 8,000; it opened in 1995. From Telal Hotel Apartments, the drive takes about 5 minutes.
Be careful with the similar venue names when checking directions. This Al Mamzar stadium is distinct from Al Maktoum Stadium in Oud Metha, a separate venue for Al Nasr Club. A route or event listing for the Oud Metha stadium does not establish details for the Al Mamzar venue.
Checking fixtures and event information
Check the event listing for the stadium, date, ticket seller and entry instructions before you travel. Shabab Al Ahli Dubai FC includes Maktoum Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Stadium among its venues, alongside Rashid Stadium and Dubai Club Stadium, so make sure the venue name matches your event.
Football-match tickets are available through the club’s official ticketing page on Platinumlist. That general guidance does not confirm that a particular event is taking place at this stadium or that the ticketing route applies to every event. The available ticketing information for Al Nasr Club does not establish a ticketing route for this venue.
The club’s venue page does not publish regular visitor opening hours, current fixtures, gate arrangements, entry restrictions, parking details or an event-day transport plan. Check the official site before you go, and use the event organiser’s instructions for the specific match or event.
Planning transport on event day
Confirm your route to the Al Mamzar stadium rather than relying on directions for the differently named Oud Metha venue. The UAE Pro League’s bus, metro, Uber, Careem and taxi directions apply to Al Maktoum Stadium in Oud Metha, not this one. For general transport planning from the area, getting around Dubai from Al Qusais is a useful reference.
If you’re considering public transport, check the relevant Dubai transit information and the event organiser’s directions for the stadium.
A guide to using Dubai Metro from Al Qiyadah and Abu Hail covers those stations, but it does not establish a stadium-specific route.
Allowing time for entry and departure
Follow the gate and arrival instructions for your event, since the club’s venue page does not specify entry procedures or how early to arrive. Check any restrictions and parking arrangements with the event organiser before leaving, as those details are not published on the venue page.
For your journey back, make a plan using the transport options and timings relevant to your event. The venue information does not set out an event-day transport plan, so don’t assume that services or arrangements for another Dubai stadium apply here.
