Dubai Parks and Resorts has officially opened to the public.

The first parks to open this week were the Legoland Dubai theme park and Riverland Dubai, a multi-themed dining and retail destination located at the heart of Dubai Parks and Resorts.

Raed Kajoor Al Nuaimi, chief executive of DXB Entertainments PJSC, the owner of Dubai Parks and Resorts, said: “I’m immensely proud that today we start to welcome guests to experience ‘amazing’ at this incredible new destination. 

“Riverland Dubai and Legoland Dubai will offer unique experiences and entertainments that I genuinely believe will set the bar in this region. 

“Nothing of this magnitude has ever been done before and after three years of hard work it is a great honour to start to show our guests what we have achieved. 

“As the largest entertainment destination in the region, Dubai Parks and Resorts will support the UAE’s tourism vision and grow the family leisure industry in the region.”
