The project, which is currently 55 per cent complete, will increase guest capacity by 20 per cent, introducing 18 new rides and attractions, including 3.3km of slide sections.
Miral, Abu Dhabi’s creator of immersive destinations and experiences, has reported that the expansion of Yas Waterworld on Yas Island is now over 55 per cent complete. The 16,900sq m expansion is set to open to the public in 2025.
“This expansion, building on Yas Waterworld’s popularity with both local and international visitors over the past decade, reaffirms our commitment to constantly elevating Yas Island’s position as a top global destination for entertainment and leisure. We are thrilled to be providing our guests from around the world an enriched and exciting new experience,” Jonathan Brown, Miral’s Chief Portfolio Officer said.
The expansion will feature the UAE’s highest slide and the first water-based amusement ride integrated into a waterslide complex, with a 15m drop designed for up to 20 guests. A new adventure, ‘The Legend of the Lost Village’, will be unveiled, offering guests a journey to discover hidden treasures and secret passages.
Yas Waterworld is part of Yas Island’s attractions, which include Ferrari World, Warner Bros. World, CLYMB, Yas Bay Waterfront, Etihad Arena, the Warner Bros. themed hotel, and SeaWorld Yas Island.
