Dubai Culture opens the door to a summer of discovery with camps set across the city’s heritage and cultural landmarks. Children and teens aged between 4 and 16 can dive into hands-on activities and creative adventures designed to spark innovation and strengthen their sense of national identity.

Children can look forward to the ‘Archaeology Adventure’ summer camp at Al Shindagha Museum, the UAE’s largest heritage museum. Running over two weeks—July 14 to 18 and July 21 to 25— the camp invites ages 6 to 12 to step into the world of archaeology, from exploring the Restoration House and trying out indoor excavations with real tools to creating artefacts and joining in treasure hunts.

At Al Jalila Cultural Centre for Children, the ‘A Burst of Imagination’ camp helps young residents build skills and discover their creative talent. Running in two groups, each lasting two weeks —July 7 to 18 and August 4 to 15— the programme immerses participants in everything from abstract art and playful movement to the vibrant traditions of the UAE.
