As the winter season approaches, Dubai Municipality has officially opened applications for temporary winter camps for the 2025-2026 season. Starting Tuesday, October 21, 2025, at 10 AM, residents can apply through the ‘Dubai Now’ app or the Dubai Municipality website (wintercamp.dm.gov.ae). Applicants must log in using UAE Pass to access the ‘Temporary Winter Camp Permit Application Service’ form. The permits, valid from November 1 to April 30, are exclusively for family use and cannot be rented or utilized by hotels or private companies. Camp reservations require a minimum commitment of three months, extendable up to the full six-month camping season. To complete the application, individuals must provide a copy of their passport, Family Book, and bank account details, including the International Bank Account Number (IBAN). Once approved, permit holders can access electronic services such as permit copies, extensions, and refunds through the municipality portal. Designated camping plots in Al Aweer offer a secure and well-equipped environment for families to enjoy Dubai’s desert landscape. Strict safety regulations mandate that camps be fenced and used solely for camping and family-related activities. Unauthorized structures or activities outside the permit limits are prohibited. This initiative underscores Dubai Municipality’s commitment to providing safe and enjoyable outdoor experiences during the cooler months.
