Warner Bros to Open One of the World’s Largest Indoor Theme Parks in Abu Dhabi

Missing the good old times when you got to binge-watch Batman, Bugs Bunny and Scooby-Doo cartoons at home as a kid? Now you can relive these nostalgic moments and watch all your favourite cartoon characters come alive!

Warner Bros is opening a S$1.3 billion indoor theme park at Yas Island, Abu Dhabi on 25 July 2018 with six immersive lands, 29 exhilarating rides, unique live shows and a smorgasbord of family-friendly attractions.

Can’t wait for the grand opening? Here’s what you can expect at every one of the six themed lands.

1. Metropolis

Join Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and more iconic Justice League characters in their battle against evil forces that lie beneath the glistening, cosmopolitan Metropolis city.

You’ll get to encounter these Justice League superheroes in real life too!

TripZilla recommends:

  • Justice League: Warworld Attacks: a thrillingly immersive good-versus-evil 5D ride featuring Superman, Wonder Woman and iconic Justice League characters

  • Green Lantern: Galactic Odyssey: an extraordinary 4D flying theatre experience featuring Hal Jordan

  • Teen Titans Training Academy: a high-element play area with zip coasters, net climbs, rope bridges and more

2. Gotham City

When night prevails, The Joker, Harley Quinn, and other sinister characters come out from the criminal underworld to attack Gotham city. Join Batman in his heroic mission to stop these bad guys from their evil schemes.

A stark contrast to Metropolis, you will encounter more villains including The Joker, Harley Quinn, Scarecrow, Two Face, and more. Be prepared for some jump scares.

TripZilla recommends:

  • Batman: Knight Flight: a high-speed, high-octane roller coaster ride with steep slopes, sharp turns, and spins

  • The Joker Funhouse: one of the creepiest rides featuring a hall of mirrors, shrinking passageways, moving carpets and a “hallucinating hallway”

With vibrant decorations and Hollywood-esque colonial buildings, Warner Bros Plaza is the theme park’s centrepiece that connects to the rest of the five exciting lands. It offers a multitudinous array of unique dining and retail options during the day and come evening, transforms into a spectacular show hosted by the Oscar-winning buck-tooth rabbit, Bugs Bunny!

All hyped up for this unparalleled fan experience? As atypical as it may be, Abu Dhabi-based developer, Miral, said that they’re aiming to make Abu Dhabi a top-ten global destination for family fun, in efforts to diversify its economy away from oil exports. Hence, exciting plans are in place to double the tourist arrival numbers over the next few years!

So gather your family and friends (read: die-hard Warner Bros fanatics) and start planning for a visit this enthralling theme park this July!
