What we know: Beast Land — spanning 188k sqm — will be running until 27 December from 4pm to midnight on weekdays and to 1am on weekends. It offers over 15 rides and 14 challenge-based attractions, including the Viking Coaster, Phantom XXL, and a 50-meter bungee jump, state news agency SPA reports. The zone’s Beast Arena features over 10 competitive games — among them Tower Siege, Battle Bridge, and Warrior Challenge — with prizes exceeding USD 500k. The zone also houses a children’s area and more than 20 food outlets.
What they said: “One of the top requests I get is: I want to be in a MrBeast video… So now we are creating that in real life where you can come visit and experience it,” Donaldson (MrBeast) told Reuters ahead of Thursday’s launch.
Six Flags Qiddiya City will open to the public on Wednesday, 31 December, becoming the first entertainment asset to launch within Qiddiya City, state news agency SPA reported yesterday. The park — the first Six Flags park outside North America — offers 28 rides and a slate of headline attractions, including Falcon’s Flight, Rattler, and Spitfire. It is divided into six themed zones built around a Saudi-inspired castle, surrounded by international dining and retail outlets.
More and more parks: Aquarabia Water Theme Park is also slated to open this year, with both parks operated by US-based Six Flags Entertainment under an agreement signed with Qiddya Investment in February. Aquarabia will feature 22 water attractions, including the world’s first double water loop and a roller coaster with the highest jump, adding another anchor experience to Qiddiya City’s entertainment lineup.
