The first E-Motionboard will find it’s Home at Six Flags Dubai. The virtual reality flying theatre is going to be a great addition! Check it some photos from our packed press conference this morning.

Let's get real! DXB share price is at an all time low with borrowing from the parent company on the increase. The visitation is well below forecast. In simple terms the current strategy is a monumental flop. What is in the making is a Global Village number Two at considerable expense to the investors and guests. The reduced Six Flags is another indication that DXB is going down hill fast. The vision and strategy was to create a place for children and teenagers to vist to live a dream, instead they get a Global Village mentality. The previous CEO got it right! He employed global theme park professionals to plan, develop, build and manage the parks and resort. It's time to bring Raed back in to retake the reigns and deliver the vision.

A user from the towerstimes forum reportedly spoke to a Dubai Parks official working on the park.

The park is actually going to be quite small on opening, smaller than motiongate but slightly bigger than legoland and bollywood.There isn't going to be the world's tallest coaster, as it would take a large amount of park space and would ruin surrounding views. All coasters are clones except the one surrounding the entrance. A manufacturer has been decided for the entrance coaster. I'm not allowed to say which one (don't worry it's good) but it is NOT B&M and no rides from them will be present on opening. It will have a record breaking flat ride (not allowed to say which)

The comment in the video is wrong though. The main contract works are still to be awarded, BAFO deadline is currently 13th November.

No more desert

Work is ongoing behind the scenes in the park, It is normally one of the last pieces of the jigsaw during project planning so this is good news.

Amazing vibes in our IT workshop with the Six Flags Global IT stakeholders Michael Israel and Dallan Elk in an endeavor to build a world-class theme park in Dubai

Thank you Xbox for the update 👍

I attended Motiongate last Monday and had a fantastic day. From what I saw over at the Six Flags site it looked busy, construction was going ahead and there was a lot of activity with cranes and diggers moving around. All of the signage states an opening date of 2019.

I am 100 percent sure that summer gets few visitors, I know the company very well. I have seen huge amount of booking of tickets and the hotel for up coming winter. It's normal to get few visitors in the summer.

Regarding Six Flags, they secured the budget and they are starting soon. They approved a number of rides in Six Flags. We all know who is behind this project so do not worry. Six Flags is opening in 2020.
