GCC residents are invited to be amongst the first to experience the new Lionsgate zone at MOTIONGATE™ Dubai which will be unveiled to the public shortly and features the world’s first rides inspired by worldwide blockbuster movie ‘The Hunger Games’.  Visitors will be able to take a hair-raising journey from District 12 to the Capitol on the adrenaline-filled half pipe roller coaster, the Capitol Bullet Train and enjoy a 3D flight that soars over Panem and takes guests in touching distance of the iconic landmarks of the Capitol, on the Panem Aerial Tour.  

 

Riverland™ Dubai, the themed dining, retail and entertainment district at the centre of Dubai Parks and Resorts will also offer a full programme of free events including celebrations for public holidays such as Eid Al Adha (1-3 September). Live outdoor entertainment and alfresco dining along the scenic river will also return giving friends and families the opportunity to come together and enjoy everything the destination has to offer.
