First of all, It is under construction. Secondly, the parks are newly opened and the parking lot of Dubai parks is inside not near the gate, I went their last weekend and it was crowded.

The agreement is already signed and is been followed up by HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashed, so plz no more rumors

Don't expect Six Flags to see the light of the day.

The Theme Park Guy has just posted this on Twitter:

The different packages for the project are being tendered, so it will still be a while before you'll see actual progress on site.

This appears to be rather slow progress since groundbreaking:

the people who were let go were from high positions as VP's down to low levels

Even theme park GM's were laid off. DPR turnover is so much lower than expected, they were too expensive.

A press release has been sent this morning regarding the future opening of a Legoland Hotel next to the park.

The 250-room hotel is being built on 300,00 square feet of land and will have easy access to Legoland Dubai and Legoland Waterpark.

Six Flags is also confirmed for a 2019 opening.

DPR has laid off about 300 +/- staff, they have given the staff one month notice. The people who got let go were from high positions as VP's down to low levels. F&B, retail, and Ops heads were among them. These aren't rumors, they are accurate information from few of the staff that were let go. An announcement will be made very soon, due to the poor performance of the parks and to lower the running costs.

In regards to Six Flags getting cancelled, those were rumors that other guy mentioned a couple of comments before me. My reply is only on the staff.

Please do not send any rumors. The project is ongoing and it is included officially as part of Dubai parks.
