Urban open space is an important place for people’s outdoor activities. Previous studies have paid little attention to outdoor comfort in arid-hot areas of China. This study focuses on the comfort evaluation of outdoor activity spaces of four different attribute sites in Shihezi City, an arid-hot region, residential (R), commercial (C), educational (E) and green square (G). Outdoor thermal environment parameters were collected and subjective questionnaires were administered in summer, and 460 valid questionnaires were collected. Physiologically equivalent temperature (PET) and universal thermal climate index (UTCI) were used as evaluation indicators and outdoor thermal benchmarks were determined. In summer people’s thermal preference is skewed towards heat. There are differences in thermal comfort for different attribute lands. We found that the green square is the most comfortable among the four attribute site categories evaluated, with 90 % of PET and UTCI acceptable temperatures ranging from 16.1–34.5 °C and 16.0–31.0 °C. In addition, we found that UTCI was more effective than PET in assessing outdoor thermal comfort in arid-hot areas. This study contributes to developing effective strategies and guidelines for urban renewal and block improvement.
