Oasis Mall Timings: Opening Hours for Dubai & Sharjah (2026)

Oasis Mall timings trip people up because the two malls do not keep the same hours — and Sharjah adds a Friday prayer break that catches first-time visitors out. Here are the official hours for both malls, plus the different timings of the supermarket, cinema, play areas and restaurants inside them.

For everything else about the malls, see our main Oasis Mall guide.

Oasis Mall Dubai Timings

The Dubai mall in Al Quoz opens at 10:00 AM every day. Saturday to Wednesday it closes at 10:00 PM; on Thursday and Friday it stays open to midnight — the two late nights are when the food court and cafés fill up after dinner elsewhere.

Inside the mall, two things run on their own clocks. Carrefour opens earlier and closes later than the mall itself — 9:00 AM to midnight daily — so grocery runs do not depend on mall hours. Fun City, the children’s play area on Level 3, follows mall hours: 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM, stretching to midnight on Thursday and Friday. Restaurants and cafés sit in between: most kitchens take last orders well before closing, as our restaurants guide details.

The Friday Prayer Break, Explained

New visitors are often confused by Sharjah’s Friday hours, so here is the simple version: Friday is the day of Jumu’ah, the main weekly congregational prayer, held around midday. Sharjah’s mall closes its doors from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM so staff and shoppers can attend, then reopens and trades through to midnight. Dubai’s mall, like most of Dubai retail, trades straight through Friday without the midday break. Neither pattern is a closure to plan around with worry — in Sharjah, just aim to arrive either before 11:30 AM or after the 1:30 PM reopening.

Oasis Mall Sharjah Timings

Sharjah keeps the same 10:00 AM start. Saturday to Wednesday the mall closes at 10:00 PM, and Thursday to Saturday it runs to midnight. Friday is the exception to learn: the mall opens 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM, closes for the Friday prayer break, and reopens at 1:30 PM through to midnight.

The Cinépolis cinema ignores mall hours in the way cinemas do — shows start late morning and the last shows at weekends end after midnight, so a late film is fine even on a 10 PM closing day; our cinema guide has the formats and prices. The food court’s McDonald’s is the early bird, opening at 9:30 AM, half an hour before the mall.

Planning a Visit Around the Hours

The grocery run. Carrefour Dubai opens at 9:00 AM, an hour before the mall — the quietest shopping of the day, and you can be out before the mall itself opens.

The family Friday in Sharjah. Arrive after the 1:30 PM reopening and the whole afternoon and evening are yours, with the cinema and food court running late.

The late film. Only Sharjah gives you one: last Cinépolis shows at weekends end after midnight, long after the shops close.

The quiet browse. Weekday mornings just after the 10:00 AM opening are the calmest hours in both malls; Thursday and Friday evenings in Dubai are the liveliest — and the busiest the car park gets.

Hours change for Ramadan and public holidays — malls usually extend late nights in Ramadan and adjust the Friday pattern. If your trip depends on a specific hour, confirm on the mall’s official channels that week.

One last timing worth knowing: the customer service desks keep mall hours too. Any errand that needs a person at a desk — lost property, a parking query, a complaint — has to happen between the 10:00 AM opening and closing time; outside those hours, the building belongs to the cleaners and the cinema crowd.
