Miral, which is behind destination experiences across Abu Dhabi, is investing more than AED12 billion (US$) across Yas Island over the next five years to enhance and expand leisure attractions and entertainment that will support Abu Dhabi’s Tourism Strategy 2030.
This next-phase development reflects a clear focus on expanding Yas Island’s existing theme parks and attractions, as well as introducing new immersive rides and experiences. The investment will also grow the island’s hospitality offering, adding new hotel rooms and elevating its accommodation portfolio.
Mohamed Khalifa Al Mubarak, chairman of Miral, said: “This investment reflects our commitment to Abu Dhabi’s long-term vision and our ambition to continue shaping one of the world’s most dynamic tourism destinations. Yas Island has become a global success story, demonstrating how world class experiences contribute to economic growth, enhance quality of life, and strengthen Abu Dhabi’s appeal to audiences from around the world.
“Over the next five years, this investment will build on that momentum, introducing new experiences and expanding our hospitality and leisure offering to meet our evolving visitor expectations. As Abu Dhabi continues to strengthen its position as a global centre for tourism and entertainment, we remain focused on creating lasting value for residents, visitors and future generations, while contributing to the emirate’s sustainable growth and diversification ambitions.”
The AED12 billion investment is separate from the previously announced Disney project.
