Car Rental in Expo City Dubai

Car rental in Expo City Dubai, delivered to the site

Expo City Dubai took over the site of the world exhibition and turned it into a district of its own: the Dubai Exhibition Centre, offices, residential buildings and the landmarks that stayed, such as Al Wasl Plaza, the Terra and Alif pavilions and the Garden in the Sky. Most people who rent a car here come for a trade show, a conference or an event, often for a few days, and want to see more of Dubai than the venue.

Rentop is a marketplace: the cars belong to licensed rental partners in Dubai, and you book them at the price they set. There is no rental desk on site. The partner brings the car to your address, you check it together with your documents, and you pay at that moment.

Today 452 cars can be delivered to Expo City Dubai, from AED 85 per day.

404 of them are delivered free of charge anywhere in Dubai, Expo City included.

When a partner charges for delivery, the fee ranges from AED 50 to AED 200 and is shown on the car page before you book.

Where we deliver in Expo City Dubai

The site is large and some areas are closed to traffic during events, so agree on a precise gate or car park with the partner. Common meeting points:

• The Dubai Exhibition Centre, at a visitor car park or drop-off area agreed in advance.
• The hotels on and around the site, at the hotel entrance.
• Residential and office buildings of Expo City, at the lobby.
• Neighbouring Dubai South and Dubai Investment Park, if you are staying there.

How much does it cost to rent a car in Expo City Dubai?

The price does not depend on the district: a car costs the same delivered to Expo City as anywhere else in Dubai. It changes with the category, the length of the rental and the deposit. The table above gives the starting price of each category today.

By the week, prices start from AED 500, and by the month from AED 1,475.

For a business trip on a budget, our sedans and economy cars are the most affordable. Staying the whole week of a show? A weekly rental costs less per day. Our guide explains how much it costs to rent a car in Dubai.

Sports car rental in Expo City Dubai

Expo City sits at the edge of the city, on wide modern roads, and the evening drive back towards the coast is part of the trip. Many visitors use a few days at a show as a chance to drive something they would never rent at home, which is why the grid above starts with sports cars.

Our sports car selection counts 75 cars from AED 349 per day.

• The classic muscle car: a Ford Mustang, a Chevrolet Camaro or a Dodge Charger.
• German precision: a BMW M4, a Porsche 911 or a Mercedes AMG GT.
• Open top for the evening: a Chevrolet Corvette, or step up to our supercars.

Exhibitors and event teams

Teams setting up a stand need to move people, samples and screens, often before the show opens. Each car is booked on its own page, so a team can combine an SUV from our SUV range for the material with a sports car for the evenings. Most cars can be rented from one day, which matches build-up and show days.

No deposit car rental in Expo City Dubai

Many cars can be rented with no deposit: nothing is blocked on your card, and each car shows whether it needs a deposit before you book. See them all on our no deposit car rental page.

352 of the 452 cars we deliver to Expo City need no deposit.

Driving and parking at Expo City Dubai

Expo City is reached by Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and Emirates Road, and the metro reaches it on the Red Line. By car, Ibn Battuta Mall, JLT and Dubai Marina are the nearest coastal districts. Salik tolls are counted during the rental and paid at the end of it.

The site has large visitor car parks, but rules change during major events, so check the parking instructions for your show before you arrive.

Each rental includes around 250 km per day, enough for the show, dinner in the Marina and the drive back.

Expo City Dubai to the airports

Al Maktoum International is close by in Dubai South, while Dubai International is on the other side of the city, so allow plenty of time for that drive. You can also have the car delivered at Dubai Airport when you land and drive straight to Expo City.

Documents you need

UAE residents: a UAE driving licence and an Emirates ID. Tourists: a passport, a visit visa and your home driving licence. Licences from the UK, the United States, Canada, most European countries and many others are accepted as they are; for other countries, add an International Driving Permit. The minimum age depends on the partner and is shown on each car page.
