Great news! Finally an official news release clarifying which parks are under construction right now (Legoland, Bollywood, Motion Gate):

The first phase of Dubai Parks & Resorts will comprise three theme parks: Motiongate Dubai, Bollywood Parks Dubai, and LEGOLAND Dubai. The development will also feature Riverpark – a grand entrance plaza and Lapita, a family themed hotel. The first phase is scheduled for completion in 2016. Ground work commenced on site in February 2014.

Meraas Holding is in talks with banks to raise up to $4 billion to build
mega-projects. Raise cash before construction began on the projects.
Hope they get the funding for some amazing projects in the works!
Stay tuned...

The Dubai Disneyland concept art came from Favilli Studio, based in Pasadena. They have done work for Disney Imagineering before:

So who knows, it may really be on the cards.

People said Marks & Spencer would never come to the UAE... just saying!!

As a Disney freak living in Dubai this would be a dream come true for me!

Disney does not have any intentions to build a theme park in Dubai.

I hope Disneyland.
