Best Podcast Production Packages in Dubai for 2025–2026

Choosing the right podcast production package in Dubai can dramatically affect the quality of your show, your workflow, and your long-term content strategy. In 2025–2026, creators and brands are prioritising all-in-one solutions that combine recording, editing, and social-ready short-form content — without hidden costs or complicated logistics.

Poddster offers Dubai’s most complete range of podcast production bundles across nine dedicated studios in Al Barsha, Dubai Media City, Motor City, and Palm Jumeirah. Each bundle is designed for a different stage of a creator or brand’s journey, with transparent pricing, professional operators, Sony FX-series cameras, Shure SM7dB microphones, and treated studio environments included by default.

This guide breaks down every bundle in detail so you can confidently choose the perfect package for your show.

Note: Many Dubai studios advertise lower hourly rates (e.g., AED 300/hr), but these usually cover audio-only recording, may charge setup fees, do not include a studio operator, and are often coworking spaces with a small podcast room rather than a dedicated production facility. Poddster bundles include full video podcast recording, treated studios, multicam options, professional operators, and clear deliverables.
