Media City Station

About Media City Station

Media City is part of the Dubai Tram network in Zone 2. The station is closely associated with Dubai Media City. It works well as a starting point for routine commuting, short city trips, and onward transfers.

Media City is on the Dubai Tram and sits between Jumeirah Beach Residence 1 and Al Sufouh. For many riders, this station is more useful when you know the surrounding area, likely exits, and the next two stops in each direction.

It mainly works as a direct origin or destination stop rather than a major transfer hub, so station access and nearby roads matter more for trip planning.

Many riders use this station for Dubai Media City, so expect heavier footfall at busy times.

Before you travel

Check your travel direction before boarding, especially if you are heading toward a terminal or changing lines later in the trip.
