  1. As a worker there, I can confirm that the rides are well underway to be finished. However, the park is indefinitely closed; we've been laid off with no news on or possibility to renew our contracts.

  2. As the rides are already stored on site, yes they will probably go on with the plans although they may not be in a hurry as Expo 2020 will be delayed one year.

    Legoland hotel opening has also been pushed back from June to November.

  3. Do we still think they will go ahead with the expansion in the current situation?

    Thanks!

    Yes, we can see a lot of works in the expansion areas of Bollywood Parks Dubai, it's going to be 2x times its original size! We can see something very similar to the planned PowerSplash for the Six Flags Dubai on the left side, close to the parking.

    The company continues to work on its ride enhancement plan which will allocate a select portfolio of 10-12 rides purchased for the previously planned Six Flags Dubai park, to MOTIONGATE Dubai and Bollywood Parks Dubai to increase dwell time and drive repeat visitation.

    We are on track with the enhancement works at MOTIONGATE Dubai and Bollywood Parks Dubai, which are expected to be completed in H1 2020. The enhancements will benefit our visitors by offering a broader choice of entertainment and thrill rides and are expected to increase dwell times and drive repeat visitation.

    Any news about the enhancement plan? The Expo 2020 is going to open in just 9 months, they need to open the rides before that opening...

    Did the works start? Any pictures?

  7. Indeed, the shareholders have approved yesterday the enhancement plan. They will add 10-12 attractions including world-record thrill rides into Motiongate and Bollywood Parks. This will take 1 year once the construction starts. 8 remaining rides from Six Flags will be stored for future resort enhancements.

  8. According to Theme Park Insider, it appears that both Bollywood and Motiongate Dubai will receive expansions in the near future.

    New family rides for Bollywood Parks Dubai in 4th quarter:

    Strategy Update

    On 18 July 2018 the Board of Directors passed a resolution for the enhancement of Bollywood Parks™ Dubai. The plan includes increasing the number of rides, with a special focus on smaller family friendly rides as well as enhancing the theming and entertainment within the park. This signals an exciting new phase in the evolution of the park. The enhancements will be operational in time to welcome visitors in the fourth quarter. The Company is also exploring a new ticketing model for Bollywood Parks™ Dubai which focuses on providing different price options for the consumer such as a pay-as-you-go model.

    The Board also mandated management to evaluate DXB Entertainments’ future development plans and capital deployment to ensure value for shareholders through prudent financial management. The review will cover future plans and expansion zones including Six Flags Dubai, to determine scope and timelines. All feasible options will be presented to the Board later in the year for final discussion on the strategy going forward.
