March (24°C) is the last comfortable month before summer heat sets in. The Dubai World Cup and various outdoor events take advantage of fading winter weather. April starts getting hot.
Extremely hot (33-38°C) and humid. Outdoor activities are essentially impossible during daytime. However, hotels slash prices by 50-70% and malls, indoor ski slopes, and water parks beckon.
October sees temperatures start to cool from unbearable to merely hot (31°C). November marks the return of pleasant outdoor weather and the start of tourist season.
The best season (20-26°C) with warm days, cool nights, and near-zero rainfall. Beach weather is perfect, desert safaris are comfortable, and the city hosts its biggest events.

Plan my Dubai tripDecember through February is peak season with the highest hotel rates and most tourists. Christmas/New Year at Burj Khalifa is the single most expensive period.
June through August offers the lowest prices — hotels can be 50-70% cheaper than winter. The trade-off is extreme heat (38°C+) that makes outdoor activities impossible.
November through March provides the only viable outdoor conditions for beach days, desert safaris, and golf. February and March are slightly less crowded than December-January.
