Adventure World plans Abu Dhabi park

By Pete Hayman    16 Dec 2011

Las Palm, the company behind the proposed new Adventure World Warsaw attraction to be built in Poland, has unveiled plans to take the concept to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

The consortium has already invested more than EUR11m (£9.2m, US$14.3m) in the Polish attraction, which aims to offer a comparable experience to other major European parks.

However, it is now proposed an Abu Dhabi theme park will be built "in parallel" to the new Grodzisk Mazowiecki destination, with the latter due to open first.

According to Las Palm, the Adventure World Abu Dhabi concept will be based on Poland's, but will feature elements of local culture and history and span 80 hectares (198 acres).

Adventure World Abu Dhabi will incorporate five themed islands with 25 attractions and an entertainment area with cinemas and restaurants, similar to Adventure World Warsaw.

Las Palm chief executive officer Peter Jan Mulder said: "The park will be developed in parallel to the investment in Poland, but the Adventure World Warsaw will be the first of them to be opened.

"In Abu-Dhabi it will be supplemented with elements of local culture and history, boosting the economy and existing tourism of Abu Dhabi, creating new jobs, and attracting even more tourists each year."
