Finding Free Parking in Dubai and UAE

Navigating the bustling streets of Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah can be challenging, especially when it comes to finding affordable or free parking spots. Our platform connects you with community-shared information about free parking locations near popular destinations like Dubai Mall, Mall of the Emirates, and JBR.

Whether you're looking for free parking during peak hours or need to know the maximum free parking duration at your favorite mall, our comprehensive database has you covered. We also provide up-to-date information on parking rules, regulations, and potential fines across the UAE to help you avoid unnecessary penalties.

Why Share Your Parking Space?

Many residential and commercial buildings in Dubai and other UAE cities have parking spaces that sit empty for hours when owners are at work or away. By sharing information about these unused spots or offering your private parking for others to use during specific hours, you contribute to easing traffic congestion and parking shortages in your community.

Our platform makes it easy to share your parking space details, including location, available hours, and any special instructions. You can help fellow drivers while potentially reducing the environmental impact of cars circling for parking spots.
