What is Dubai International Stadium?
Dubai International Stadium is a cricket ground in Dubai with a capacity of 25,000. It has hosted international cricket since its first One Day International in 2009.
Pakistan beat Australia by four wickets in that first ODI. The venue’s first Test followed in 2010, ending in a draw between Pakistan and South Africa. It has also hosted the finals of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021 and ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024.
The stadium is one of three venues for DP World ILT20 Season 5, alongside Sharjah Cricket Stadium and Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi. Check the organiser’s event listing to confirm which matches are scheduled at this ground.
How do you find fixtures and tickets?
Use the event organiser’s listing to confirm the fixture, start time and ticket terms before travelling. Fixture information can change, so rely on the official event page for the match you plan to attend.
The ILT20 official site gives general-admission tickets from AED 10, with free seating except in the Platinum Enclosure in Dubai. E-tickets are emailed 48 hours before the match. Check the official site before you go.
For ILT20 family tickets, children aged 5 and above need a ticket. Children under 5 can enter free if they do not take a seat. VIP hospitality tickets are also available; the organiser directs visitors to its event information and Platinumlist for details.
How do you get to the stadium on match day?
Confirm your route and event-day travel arrangements for the specific match; the stadium’s location alone does not determine the best way to arrive. If you are staying at Grand Bellevue’s four-star aparthotel rooms, check the route from your accommodation against the event organiser’s current guidance.
Dubai Internet City station is about a 13-minute walk or 7-minute drive from Grand Bellevue, though this does not establish a route to the stadium.
For Dubai public-transport planning beyond the stadium trip, the guide to getting around Dubai from the hotel area covers the wider city.
Dubai Internet City’s Metro visitor guide covers the station and its surroundings.
What should you check for entry, parking and accessibility?
Check the event’s own entry, parking and accessibility guidance before setting out. Rules and arrangements can differ by match, and the ticket terms should be read alongside the venue instructions.
For a smoother arrival, confirm your ticket type, entry requirements and any parking or accessible-arrival arrangements with the organiser. Keep the e-ticket available as instructed, and verify the match start time before you leave.
