Summer Camps in Dubai 2026

Music, dance, art and drama holiday camps for ages 4–15 at our Karama studio. Five-day immersive weeks, small groups, no prior experience required.

A better kind of Dubai summer camp

Most Dubai summer camps are generic, gym games, arts-and-crafts kits, a bit of everything. Our camps are the opposite: structured, specialist and taught by the same Trinity-accredited faculty who teach during the school year. Your child spends the week with real musicians, dancers and artists , not staff hired for the season.

Every camp ends with a live performance or showcase for parents on Friday. Kids leave with a real achievement, a song they can play, a dance piece they can perform, a portfolio they can show off. And if they love it, they can roll straight into a September term.

Why our camps stand out in Dubai

Real teachers, not summer staff

Camps are led by our full-time faculty, the same people who teach Trinity Grade 8 students during term. Not college kids filling summer hours.

29 years of camp experience

We’ve run holiday camps since the late 1990s. Routines, energy levels and pacing are dialled in for UAE-summer attention spans.

Small groups by design

6–10 kids per session. Every camper gets real hands-on time with an instrument, a dance step or a brush, not 30 kids watching one demo.

Air-conditioned Karama studio

Central Dubai, metro-accessible, familiar for families who live in Bur Dubai, Al Karama, Al Wasl, Downtown, Oud Metha and Jumeirah.

Showcase for parents

Friday performance or exhibition in every camp. Kids leave with a genuine sense of completion, and a video you’ll actually want to re-watch.

Bridge to term-time classes

Discount on your first month if you continue after camp. No pressure, but most campers stay.
