Dubai Municipality has opened applications for exclusive seasonal investment opportunities to run commercial activities in the Al Rawiyah area, within sites designated for winter camps during the 2026-2027 season. Applications opened on September 18 through the municipality's Investment Opportunities Platform at investmentopportunities.dm.gov.ae.

The move is part of a broader municipal programme to develop seasonal and tourism-related commercial activity across the emirate. Al Rawiyah has already drawn attention from other government entities: Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority opened a separate dedicated facility in the area in January 2026, underscoring its growing role in the city's development plans.

Winter camps in Dubai typically host activities such as desert tourism, family outings, cultural events and seasonal retail, which pick up as the UAE's cooler season runs from October through March. Through this initiative, Dubai Municipality is looking to attract private-sector investors to operate within these seasonal sites.

Full details on eligibility, exact locations and the evaluation process for applications are available to interested parties through the municipality's official platform.
