Airport visitors were delighted to see the characters at terminal three's arrivals section, and were able to interact with Shrek and the Smurfs from MOTIONGATE Dubai, our lookalike Don from Bollywood Parks Dubai and Buddy from LEGOLAND Dubai.
The characters will now settle into their new homes at Dubai Parks and Resorts, and welcome their guests who will get the chance to meet these remarkable characters in person and enjoy over 100 rides and attractions across three theme parks and one water park.
The entertainment destination commenced its historic opening with LEGOLAND Dubai and Riverland Dubai on October 31. Shortly followed by Bollywood Parks Dubai on 17th November, while MOTIONGATE Dubai and LEGOLAND Water Park, along with Lapita Hotel will debut in December 2016.
