Six Flags will help develop thrill parks “across the Arab world,” including a 5 million-square-foot Six Flags DubaiLand park, under a deal the company announced Tuesday.
Six Flags and Tatweer, a member of Dubai Holding, announced the deal they will team up in a “strategic alliance” to add a theme park to the massive DubaiLand entertainment development.
Six Flags DubaiLand will be the first Six Flags project outside North America. DubaiLand is a key part of the emirate’s goal of transforming itself into a leading worldwide tourism hub.
“Featuring its signature lineup of thrill and themed adventure rides and attractions, Six Flags DubaiLand will boast world renowned entertainment franchises such as the children’s musical group Wiggles and professional skateboarder Tony Hawk,” the two companies said.
Groundbreaking is expected in 2009, the companies said.
