Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, the region’s leading theme park in the heart of Yas Island, is set to roll out an exciting line-up of culturally-inspired entertainment, and the first-ever fusion food concept to mark the Eid Al-Adha celebrations taking place at the park from August 22-26, 2018.
The family festivities will complement the guest experience at Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, which combines thrilling rides and attractions such as record-breaking roller coasters and adventures, to present an unforgettable day at the park.
Taking place from August 23-25, a variety of international cuisines and home-grown food concepts are set to offer delectable dining options, all served up by participating restaurants on a backdrop of live music. On August 23, guests can experience the thrill of competition as the Black Box Chef Competition kicks off at 2.00pm, presenting a live cook-off between Yas Island’s celebrated chefs. Audiences can be assured of a riveting display of culinary showmanship designed to electrify the atmosphere in the same spirit as the park’s rides.
Guests are also invited to participate in a range of activities including storytelling sessions inspired by the UAE’s heritage, creatively supported by live theatre, traditional Ayyala performances and an art and crafts station for the park’s youngest visitors. Celebrating the Year of Zayed, a one-of-a-kind ‘Cultural Maze’ will display iconic and rare photographs of the late Sheikh Zayed’s legacy that also offer snapshots into the UAE’s history.
