History

The park was built by the Ilyas and Mustafa Galadari (IMG) Group and is the world's largest indoor theme park. The park was part of the City of Arabia development project, a part of Dubailand, which was stalled due to the 2008 property crash. In April 2014, the park got a Dh1.2 billion ($326 million) loan from the Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank. The park itself is valued over $1 Billion. Developers predict that the park will welcome 10,000 visitors daily, and has the capacity to hold up to 20,000 daily. The complex was originally set to open in early 2014, has been since been delayed to late 2014, and again to August 31, 2016 The IMG Group stated in January 2014 that the foundations for the rides were nearly complete and that the structure of the building is complete.

The park includes 17 themed rides.
