At the 1 October 2026 snapshot, Al Wasl Plaza listed daily hours from 00:00 to 23:59; Vision Pavilion listed daily hours from 10:00 to 18:00 with last entry at 17:30; House of Arts listed Tuesday to Sunday from 12:00 to 20:00 and Monday closed; and Expo City Mosque listed daily hours from 04:00 to 21:00 (Al Wasl Plaza, Vision Pavilion, House of Arts and Expo City Mosque, accessed 1 October 2026). The four schedules add up to 27 listed open attraction-days in a seven-day week.
Four attraction pages at a glance
The four pages expose different kinds of access. The table keeps the state shown at 04:19 GMT+4 separate from the hours published for the full week.
Across the seven-day grid, those rows produce 27 listed open attraction-days out of 28 possible page-days. The daily service windows run from 8 hours at Vision Pavilion and House of Arts to 23 hours 59 minutes at Al Wasl Plaza. These are calculated comparisons of the published schedules, not extra hours supplied by Expo City.
A live page state and a weekly schedule answer different questions
The Open or Closed word answers whether the page considered the attraction open at the capture time. The weekly grid answers when the page says it normally opens and closes on each day.
That distinction matters at 04:19 GMT+4. Al Wasl Plaza and Expo City Mosque were already inside their published windows, so their pages showed Open. Vision Pavilion and House of Arts had not reached their listed opening times, so their pages showed Closed. A new request later in the day can show a different state without any change to the underlying weekly hours.
Scheduled shows and one-off programming sit outside this service. The reviewed Expo City calendar by venue keeps those dated listings separate from standing attraction hours.
Al Wasl Plaza: daily from 00:00 to 23:59
Al Wasl Plaza carries the broadest window in the four-page set. Its subject page showed Open at 04:19 GMT+4 and published 00:00 to 23:59 for every day from Monday to Sunday (Expo City Dubai, accessed 1 October 2026).
That line supports access to the plaza across the stated daily window. It does not establish when a projection, performance or event begins. Those need their own dated event page.
Vision Pavilion: daily from 10:00 to 18:00
Vision Pavilion is a daytime stop. Its subject page showed Closed at 04:19 GMT+4 and listed 10:00 to 18:00 every day, with last entry at 17:30 (Expo City Dubai, accessed 1 October 2026).
The last-entry line sits 30 minutes before the published close. A reader planning a late visit needs that entry cutoff as well as the closing time.
House of Arts: Tuesday to Sunday from 12:00 to 20:00
House of Arts is the exception to the seven-day pattern. Its subject page showed Closed at 04:19 GMT+4, marked Monday closed, and listed 12:00 to 20:00 from Tuesday through Sunday (Expo City Dubai, accessed 1 October 2026).
The 1 October snapshot falls on a Thursday, so the weekly grid places that date among the six scheduled open days. The early-morning Closed label reflected the access time, not a Thursday closure.
Expo City Mosque: daily from 04:00 to 21:00
Expo City Mosque was the early-opening indoor record in this set. Its subject page showed Open at 04:19 GMT+4 and listed 04:00 to 21:00 every day from Monday to Sunday (Expo City Dubai, accessed 1 October 2026).
The mosque page is the schedule source for the mosque itself. Hours from another attraction card or a broader things-to-do directory are not used to extend that window.
Build the day from the exact subject pages
The clean sequence is time-based: Al Wasl Plaza spans the full day, Expo City Mosque begins at 04:00, Vision Pavilion begins at 10:00 and House of Arts begins at 12:00 from Tuesday to Sunday. The two indoor cultural pages both publish 8-hour daily windows on their open days, while the mosque publishes 17 hours and Al Wasl Plaza 23 hours 59 minutes.
Open all four linked pages again on the day of travel. The page state is live, and a revised weekly grid needs to replace this 1 October snapshot rather than be blended with it.
FAQ, checked 1 October 2026
Are these four Expo City attractions open every day?
Three of the four selected subject pages list hours on all seven days. House of Arts lists Tuesday to Sunday from 12:00 to 20:00 and marks Monday closed (Expo City Dubai, accessed 1 October 2026).
What time do Expo City attractions open?
The four selected pages publish different start times: Al Wasl Plaza at 00:00, Expo City Mosque at 04:00, Vision Pavilion at 10:00 and House of Arts at 12:00 from Tuesday to Sunday. Each time comes from the linked subject page, accessed 1 October 2026.
Is Expo City Dubai still open?
The four exact subject pages were active and publishing current weekly hours on 1 October 2026. At the recorded 04:19 GMT+4 capture, Al Wasl Plaza and Expo City Mosque showed Open, while Vision Pavilion and House of Arts showed Closed because their listed opening times were later.
What are the Vision Pavilion hours?
Vision Pavilion's subject page lists 10:00 to 18:00 daily, with last entry at 17:30 (Expo City Dubai, accessed 1 October 2026).
