Map: Dubai Tennis Stadium and the listed hotels
Getting to Dubai Tennis Stadium
The nearest metro stop is Al Garhoud, formerly known as GGICO, on the Red Line between Airport Terminal 1 and Deira City Centre, and most guides put the walk from there at around five minutes, though some route planners measure closer to ten or twelve. During the Championships a free shuttle bus also runs between the metro station and the stadium. Drivers can use the free Park and Ride service, with a car park on the south side of 5th Street near the Casablanca Street junction. Taxis and ride hailing apps such as Uber and Careem also serve the venue, with prepaid NOL cards covering metro, tram, bus and taxi fares. The Red Line runs until around midnight most nights and about one in the morning on Fridays, and the 32C bus route also passes near the stadium.

Metro operates late enough for evening sessions
On most weekdays and Saturdays the Red Line runs until around midnight, while on Fridays services are extended to about one in the morning, giving spectators a route home after night matches. Exact last train times vary slightly by station and direction, so checking the RTA app on the night is advisable.
Close to Dubai International Airport
The stadium sits in the Al Garhoud area close to Dubai International Airport, with the Airport Terminal 1 metro station only one stop away from Al Garhoud on the Red Line. This makes a direct metro or short taxi transfer from the airport straightforward for visiting spectators.
Local bus route also passes near the venue
Aside from the metro, the 32C bus service linking Al Satwa Bus Station and Al Qusais Bus Station stops near the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Stadium. This offers an alternative low-cost public transport option for those not travelling via the Red Line.
